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.

Tim Stockdale repeated last year's victory when he rode Toggi Santa's Echo to win yesterday's Land Rover Classic on the second day of the Royal Windsor Horse Show, writes Genevieve Murphy from Windsor. Only Peter Charles on Greystone came close to the winning time.

Marie Edgar, who was fourth on Everest Winstar in the class that Stockdale won, had the satisfaction of defeating Michael Whitaker when she rode the nine-year-old Swedish-bred Aladdin to win the earlier Land Rover Grade A Jumping.

Edgar plans to ride Winstar when she defends her women's national title today, while Aladdin is saved for tomorrow evening's Lancaster Landmark Grand Prix.

Winstar is likely to have a further engagement in tomorrow's Land Rover British Horsemaster, in which four riders compete on their own and each other's horses.
