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.A HEFTY gamble developed yesterday on an unraced filly by the name of Crystal Charm from the Manton yard of Peter Chapple-Hyam. Apparently set to make her racecourse debut in the Lowther Stakes at York next week, her price for next year's 1000 Guineas has been cut to 16-1 with William Hill and Coral and to 20-1 with the Tote.
William Hill cut her from 40-1 through 33s and 20s, while Coral reported that they were "inundated with bets" at 25-1.
The filly had apparently been the subject of a strong message from one of Britain's foremost tipping services.
"Bar Killer Instinct, this is the biggest gamble on a two-year-old so far this year," Simon Clare, of Coral, reported. "The influence of tipping services is growing by the day, and after Gaelic Storm and Decorated Hero, this is another example of the huge impact they are having on ante-post markets."
