 I don't know if it draws. But the first opportunity to force the game is here:
4. f4 h6 (Probably forced due to the drawing nature of rook and bishop pawn rook
 endgames)And the possible followup is: 5 .Ra5 Kg6 6.Ra6+ Kg7 7.fxg5 hxg5 And it
is a bother for black to make headway. Btw. 8.h4 directly seems dubious but it
is an important resource.
