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.Richard Dunwoody's mount, Chief's Song, was heavily backed yesterday for the William Hill Handicap Hurdle at Sandown on Saturday.
The sponsors cut their price for Simon Dow's horse from 14-1 to 13-2 clear second favourite. Ladbrokes laid him to lose over pounds 40,000, cutting their odds to 7-1 from 10-1.
The latter firm eased the favourite, Bimsey out to 7-2 from 3-1, despite confirmation that Reg Akehurst's five-year-old will run. Doubts had arisen because Bimsey's weight had been put up 4lb without connections or punters knowing.
