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.Tony McCoy, who rides at both Huntingdon and Cheltenham today, has decided not to appeal against the suspension incurred at Newton Abbot last week. He will be on the sidelines for three days from Thursday, thus missing the Hennessy meeting.
Today, he partners Courbaril in the 1.00 at Cheltenham, then travels east to ride Teinein in the 3.35 at Huntingdon. "Tony will be doing the trip by car. He should easily be able to do it in one and a half hours," his agent, Dave Roberts, said.
Banned for five days and booed by the Wolverhampton crowd yesterday was the apprentice David Griffiths. He threw away a race he should have won when failing to ride out Dragonjoy and was caught on the line by Honestly.
