3.78 pawns is a very small advantage in that position and it does not convince
me that black is winning.

It will be more convincing if Fritz can win comp-comp games against itself and
against other engines.

I also think that you did not give Fritz enough time.
It may be better if you give it at least 99 hours and maybe it has some chance
to solve that game.

If Fritz can see a forced mate or even only 20 pawns advantage it may be more
convincing.
