I remember that other programs can find Ba3.
The main problem is to find big positive score for this move because some
programs may play it with a score of 0.00 but I think that even finding a big
positive score for white in a few minutes is not a big problem for part of the
top programs(I remember that at least one of the programs that I bought could do
it but unfortunately I do not remember the name of the program).

Unfortunately my programs are busy in a different position from my
correspondence games so I cannot check it right now.
