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.

Canon Can, who the offical handicapper admits is potentially thrown in at the weights for the Cesarewitch Handicap following his success in a four-runner stakes race at Pontefract, is now 4-1 favourite with William Hill and has been backed from 8-1 to 5-1 for the race with Ladbrokes.

Further down the Cesarewitch list, the former winner Trainglot is 33- 1 with Coral. All the other firms go 16-1 about the Jimmy FitzGerald-trained stayer.
