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.PAUL CARBERRY, who has been out of action since April, the same month that he won the Grand National on Bobbyjo. returns to race-riding at Roscommon today.
Carberry, who underwent an operation on his spleen after collapsing with abdominal pains, still finished second with 71 winners to Ruby Walsh in the Irish jockeys' championship.
"I feel grand and I'm really looking forward to coming back," Carberry said yesterday. "I'll just try and ride as many winners as possible, but I'll certainly have a crack at the championship."
The Northern Ireland Festival of Racing at Down Royal on 5 and 6 November continues to attract top performers and Paul Nicholls yesterday confirmed that Dines, one of last season's top novice chasers, will contest the Isuzu Chase over two miles and two furlongs, which is worth pounds 20,000 and is for second-season chasers.
"Dines will accompany See More Business and I could have other runners at the meeting," Nicholls said. See More Business. his Cheltenham Gold Cup winner, runs in the pounds 100,000 Jim Nicholson Ulster Champion Chase.
