| British solo yachtswoman Ellen MacArthur yesterday claimed a record-breaking victory in the Route du Rhum, one of the world's most prestigious transatlantic races. |
|
| An alcohol-soaked rum cake similar to a baba au rhum that sat on a puree of orange with a whipped coconut cream was a decided runner-up. |
|
| Baba Au Rhum only just stays the minimum trip, but even so the waiting tactics he requires were overdone in the two-mile handicap hurdle. |
|
| At Ludlow yesterday Tony McCoy hit the 50-winner mark for the season with victory on Baba Au Rhum in the opening Bridgnorth Novices' Hurdle. |
|
| But Williams can be on the mark in the two-mile Discover Racing Handicap Chase with Baba Au Rhum who will have the assistance of Tony McCoy in the saddle. |
|
| Ross Hobson, of Ponteland, was taking part in the Route du Rhum yacht race in November 2006 when his catamaran, named Mollymawk, was flipped over in high seas. |
|
| Ross Hobson was competing in the Route du Rhum race from St Malo in France to Guadeloupe in the Caribbean when the Ideal Stelrad, formerly the Mollymawk, capsized. |
|
| Specials here include macaroons, puits d'amour and baba au rhum, a small yeast cake saturated in hard liquor. |
|
| As for endings, the baba au rhum is a nostalgic surprise, and sweet offerings of creme caramel, lemon tart and a typically English rice pudding receive positive nods. |
