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.

FORESEE yesterday joined the Irish Derby field to ensure that Sheikh Mohammed is represented in Sunday's Classic at The Curragh.

The Irish colt completed a satisfactory piece of exercise for John Oxx, his trainer, to earn his place alongside the better fancied stable-companion Massyar. Foresee finished fourth in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot last week.

With Michael Roberts suspended, Oxx has booked John Murtagh, having his first ride in the race, for Foresee.

Conditions at The Curragh are drying out steadily and the ground is considered suitable for Khalid Abdulla's Regency, with Willie Carson aboard, to join the line-up alongside the same owner's Commander In Chief, who will be ridden by Pat Eddery.
