The position after move 16 of white seems to be a good test position

[D]r1b2rk1/pp4pp/4p3/2np4/3R1P2/2N3P1/PPP3BP/2K4R b - - 0 16 bm a5

Crafty played Bd7 and it seems that this move is simply losing material
after 17.b4 and 18.Nxd5

a5 seems to be a better move and it seems that the same idea a3 Bd7 b4 axb4 axb4
Ra1+ does not lead to the same results.

After a5 Re1 Bd7 white has a better position but it seems that white has not a
simple win.

Both Deep Fritz and Junior7 like a5 Re1 Bd7.
