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.

Frankie Dettori's maintained his phenomenal strike-rate at the Capannelle, Rome, yesterday, with four winners from five rides.

Dettori took the first three races aboard Grandfather's Love, Nicole Pharly and Blue Earthquake, but his luck temporarily deserted him on the John Gosden-trained Leap For Joy, who finished fifth to the 52-1 chance Golden Oriental in the Group Three Premio Umbria.

In the Group Two Premio Guido Berardelli for two-year-olds he drove GoldenAvventura to victory over John Dunlop's Yavlensky (Michael Roberts). Dettori had ridden three winners at the track the previous Sunday.

Peter Chapple-Hyam's Court Of Honour was unplaced on his final start for the trainer in the Sandown Cup, in Adelaide.

The Lord Huntingdon-trained Whitechapel (David Harrison) picked up pounds 2,372 when fourth in yesterday's Listed Grand Prix de Bordeaux over a mile and a half. The son of Arctic Tern had no answer when the pace quickened and was beaten seven lengths.
