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.

A BET of pounds 18,000 to pounds 9,000 was landed when Time For Action won in fine style at Hamilton yesterday. Mark Tompkins' colt readily accounted for Camicia and Anam.

Chantry Beath, the heavily backed favourite in the final event, narrowly failed, however. Cutthroat Kid held on by a neck.

Lanfranco Dettori made his trip to Scotland pay when Pastel won in impressive fashion. It was the young Italian's 1,069th ride of the year, beating the mark that Michael Roberts set up two years ago. When Sir Gordon Richards rode his record 269 winners in 1947, he had 835 rides.
