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.JOKIST: this veteran indicated at Folkestone on Friday he could yet return to the winners' enclosure. Ran on late to be a close-up fifth to Panchellita. Obviously not as sprightly as he was - the last of this 10-year-old's 10 victories came two years ago - but a substantial drop down the weights can more than compensate. (W Jarvis)
PAONIC: appeared to run disappointingly when an odds-on favourite at Thirsk on Monday. This two-year-old colt, having his third run, finished third to Indiahra. That winner, however, beat another good field at Haydock on Friday. (L Cumani)
WAFFLE ON: faced a stiff task, and was probably needed further, when fifth to Bunty Boo at Salisbury on Thursday. A lightly-raced three-year-old, who won at Newmarket in May when contesting her first race, she can soon win again. (J Fanshawe)
