Racing: Cecil aims his horsepower
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.

Henry Cecil, who trains Tenby and Armiger, has also entered two other Derby possibles for the events. Commander In Chief is among the 36 in the Vase, and Placerville is one of 29 acceptors for the Dante. All four horses are owned by Khalid Abdulla.
Tenby, as low as 4-1 for the Derby, may well run in a classic trial at Sandown this Saturday.
At Gowran Park yesterday, Advocat, a Derby long-shot, gave Mick Kinane his first winner with his first ride in Ireland since returning from Hong Kong. The colt, trained by John Oxx, carries the colours of Sheikh Mohammed.
