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.

THE dismal list of abandonments looks likely to grow this week, after cards at Lingfield today and Leicester tomorrow joined those washed away. Chepstow inspects early today to determine prospects for tomorrow's meeting. Plumpton will also inspect today with a weather eye on Wednesday's card.

This afternoon's programme is filled by all-weather fixtures at Wolverhampton and Southwell, which stages the first stand-by meeting but has attracted just 45 runners to a card graced by the Noah's Ark Selling Hurdle. The Drowning Punter Clutching At Straws Stakes might have been a more appropriate title.
