I am not sure if Nf5+ is the right move because I have not the KBP vs KP tablebases and I did not analyze the position to see if Nf5+ leads to a draw. There is no trivial draw after Nf5+ gxf5 Kxf5 because the black king cannot get to a8 after Kd4 because the white king can prevent it. If white can force black to play a3 by zunzwang then it is possible that white can take the pawn with the bishop and win the game. Uri
