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.J P McMANUS has purchased Le Coudray, France's leading four-year- old hurdler, for an undisclosed sum. It is thought that he will now be trained in Ireland.
Le Coudray, who had been trained in Chantilly by Marcel Rolland, has won four out of his last five races. Rolland said "This horse has lots of quality, can jump quickly and has plenty of stamina. All I hope is that if he does not adapt to the obstacles in England and Ireland, then he will be sent back to me."
The David Chapman-trained Soaked makes his first attempt at the outright 20th Century Flat handicap record of 10 wins at Wolverhampton today. Other joint-holders include Sihafi and Chapman's Chaplins Club and Glencroft.
