I found the middle game of this game very entertaining. I'd really appreciate if you'll be commenting on it. Be aware of blunders.

I will comment first myself:
At 22g 2 steps seemed pointless:rb5e & Rb4n.
On the next move silver has blocked very well.
24s I think was very good. Very menacing rabbit there.
27s The last step should have been df4n. On the next move gold has captured a horse turning the tides of the game. The rabbit advance has not done much there!

I'm in doubt for a better 39g. I'm still not sure if there is one!
43s was a little bit careless but i think gold would have won anyway!

Overall a very good game.One of my best I think. Thanks VinceS for the challenge.

I haven't yet given the whole game a proper viewing, but the most glaringly obvious mistakes were 9s (ed5e rd4n x x is much better), 27s (as you already mentioned), and 43s (as you already mentioned).
