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.

2.05: Montecristo was an unlucky runner-up at Epsom three weeks ago. Further rain would enhance this one's prospects. Soft ground would also boost CARLYS QUEST's chance. An eye-catching fourth on unsuitable fast going at Newmarket 10 days ago indicated that his customary late challenge will see him go close this afternoon.

2.35: CALCUTTA was full of running in a hot handicap at Newmarket a month ago but was boxed in against the far rail. The colt, who eventually finished fast to take third place, has a good draw today and can put matters right.

3.10: Godolphin won with the impressive filly Mythical Girl on Saturday and now it's the turn of their Oaks candidate ZAHRAT DUBAI to strut her stuff. Sixth behind the colts in a hot maiden at Newmarket, she may produce too much of a finishing kick for the soft-ground winners Barafamy, Mother Of Pearl and Bountiful Lady, and thus emulate the stable's Bahr 12 months ago.

3.40: Michael Bell is proving a dab hand in three-year-old handicaps and he has booked five-times South African champion Piere Strydom for REGAL EXIT, who has notched up a hat-trick of promising efforts in maidens.
