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.

PUNTERS will not be impressed to learn that Coral, William Hill and Ladbrokes are not pricing up today's Showcase race until this morning writes Hyperion (Ian Davies).

The decision to issue a late- late first show is a poor show from the Big Three bookmakers, who had been lobbying the BHB for this initiative which they are now failing to support less than a week after its launch.

The Tote and leading independent bookmaker Stanley, which has over 500 betting shops nationwide, have come to the rescue however, and Toshiba Talk look fair each-way value at 10-1 with the Tote.

He has been in fine form over hurdles and was far from disgraced in finishing 10th to Blowing Wind in the County Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and looks leniently handicapped on his return to the Flat. Mr Fortywinks, who looks fairly treated on his all-weather form, might be the main danger.
