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.

ASCOT

2.30: COULDNT BE BETTER was a useful hurdler but always shaped as though the bigger obstacles would help him fulfil his real potential. Charlie Brooks's seven-year-old seems to be running into form - his latest run was his best display of the season. Suffolk Road is well treated by the weights but possesses less scope than the selection.

3.05: Big Beat is certain to ensure this race is run at a breakneck speed from the start. David Elsworth's six-year-old is so headstrong he lacks respect for the obstacles, however. Ghia Gneuiagh is another front-runner but, on the swing for home, the consistent Yellow Spring should be moving into contention along with BOSCEAN CHIEFTAIN. The fast pace should suit Richard Dunwoody's mount, whose staying power could well be decisive.

3.35: A contest to be wary of because of no guarantee of pace. Res Ipsa Loquitur was backed last time out but is greatly disadvantaged by these weights. As long as the race is run in a decent time, DANCING PADDY should outgallop his main rival, Pontynyswen.
