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.

Last year's November Handicap runner-up, Kutta, will not attempt to go one place better in this year's renewal on Saturday. Robert Armstrong yesterday withdrew the horse, who had been due to carry top-weight of 9st 10lb, from the contest - the big race of the final day of the Flat turf season.

The trainer has left in Sheer Danzig, who is now set to head the handicap, with the weights rising by 5lb. A total of 40 horses were left in the race yesterday, including market leaders Arctic Owl, Dantesque, Heritage and Ridaiyma.
