I'm pretty sure Fritz 7 wouldn't find it in under an hour.

Here's a quick analysis:


1.Re1!

   [or 1.Qh5+ Kg8 2.Bh6 Rf7 3.Qg6+ Kh8 4.Qxf7 Qg8 5.Qxg8+ Rxg8 6.f4 +-]

1...Be8 2.Qh6+ Kg8 3.Re3 Nxe5

   [3...Bh4 4.Re4 Bxf2+ 5.Kh1 Nxe5 6.Rxe5 Bxd4 7.Rg5+ Qxg5 8.Bxg5 Bg7
    9.Qxe6+ Bf7 10.Qg4 +-]

4.Qxe6+ Rf7 5.Rg3+ Kh8 6.Bf4 Nf3+ 7.gxf3 Bf6 8.Be5 +-
