N.58 shows three interferences on 'e6' nothing new. But what is interesting is two interferences on the black pawn e7. Let us hope it is new !

The seven move threat in 63 is not considered short I think, but it is indeed a weakness in the otherwise fine N.60.

You are right Ram that the problem n.60 is very nice, but unfortunatelly the short threat is a weakness. Actually even with this weakness I like this problem because of the fine variations.
More interesting is that till to the moment all published original threemovers in KoBulChess are from Nikolay Dimitrov! I thank very much the bulgarian maestro who celebrate his 83th Birthday 4 days ago!
I hope that another composers also will send their threemover originals for publication in KoBulChess 2012.
