The latest word in the h3 variation

Hello, All:

I have come across the game Krasenkow-Hebden, which appears as the latest word in the h3 variation. Here is the game:

[Event "Port Erin open"]
[Site ""]
[Date "2006.??.??"]
[Round "2"]
[White "Krasenkow, Michal"]
[Black "Hebden, Mark"]
[Result "1-0"]
[WhiteElo "2635"]
[BlackElo "2532"]
[NIC "KI 20.11.5"]
[ECO "E60"]
[PlyCount "81"]

1. d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 g6 3. c4 Bg7 4. Nc3 O-O 5. e4 d6 6. h3 e5 7. d5 a5 8. Bg5 Na6 9. 
Be2 Nc5 10. Nd2 h6 11. Be3 Bd7 12. g4 c6 13. h4 a4 14. g5 hxg5 15. hxg5 Nh7 16. Rg1 
Qa5 17. Qc2 cxd5 18. Nxd5 Rfe8 19. Qc3 Bc6 20. Bxc5 Qxc5 21. Nc7 Nf8 22. Bg4 Nh7 
23. Bh3 Bf8 24. Nxe8 Rxe8 25. b4 axb3 26. axb3 b5 27. Ra6 Bb7 28. Ra5 b4 29. Qa1 
Qc7 30. Ra7 Be7 31. Qa4 Rb8 32. Nf3 d5 33. cxd5 Qc3  34. Ke2 Qc2  35. Nd2 Bxg5 36. 
Qa2 Qc3 37. Rg3 Qc5 38. Rxb7 Rxb7 39. Qa8  Kg7 40. Qxb7 Bxd2 41. Rxg6  1-0

In a previous game, white played 19. Qb1!?, in order to defend against the threat of ..a4-a3 and by defending e4, allows white to recapture on d5 with the knight. Previously, 17. Rc1 cxd5 cxd5 b5 had been played which is quite promising for black. So, in this game, white played 19. Qc3, and, considering the outcome of the above game, is there any improvements for black's play after 19. Qc3?
