Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Tomorrow's meeting at Newton Abbot will go ahead following an inspection yesterday. Patches of hard ground had put the fixture in jeopardy but the track was passed fit for racing after being watered.

A spokesman for the track said: "The going is firm, good to firm in places, watering."

Michael Roberts was banned for two days (19 and 21 April) for using his whip in the forehand position in front of the saddle on Village Native at Folkestone yesterday.
