Hi Graham,
You may be right

I wrongly considered Ray and you as the same person and in the post of Ray the
name CM was not mentioned.

In any case I think that it is not a surprise that Deep Fritz and Hiarcs are
losing against CM because I do not think that CM  is weaker than them.

The only program so far that is leading against CM is Junior9.
