Thanks Dann, I came to a similar result. :) Unfortunately white can do even better in the position shown by omitting the move Qf7 and going directly to h4! According to human GMs black will lose this pawn race, and I agree. Fritz is completely blind to the threat until you push the h pawn way up the board, then all of a sudden it realizes black is toast. Crafty seems a bit better, but I think programs have a hard time imitating humans here. A human will immediately look to see if he can win the race with the h pawn.
