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.

NAWAR emerged as a contender for the Triumph Hurdle when landing a gamble on his jumping debut for John Jenkins at Leicester yesterday.

The 5-2 favourite for the Ash Juvenile Novice Hurdle hit the front four flights from home to beat the highly rated Moorish by eight lengths.

Owner Jim Long said: 'We thought defeat was out of the question. Nawar ran only once on the flat in France and he won that, after which we bought him for a substantial sum from the Aga Khan. He'll go to Cheltenham and he's the one they all have to beat.'

Nawar will run next in the Summit Junior Hurdle at Lingfield on Saturday week.
