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.

So it was a testament to the frantic efforts of the grounds team that, albeit more than an hour late, the remaining six races on the card eventually went into the form book. Marquand also revised his earlier decision and rode in the final two races. An abandonment on Thursday would have been a huge blow, both financially and reputationally, to a venue that is still building back having lost its May festival to Covid in 2020 before running behind closed doors a year later.

Esna's close fourth in the Group One Prix Marcel Boussac at Longchamp last October is the best piece of form coming into the race.

Considering he took out a licence in 2013, you could hardly describe trainer Ben Pauling as an up-and-coming talent, but it's fair to say he wouldn't be as well known to the average racegoer in Britain as established figures like Dan Skelton, Paul Nicholls or Nicky Henderson.

I'm throwing him in there in the deep end of the pool. You just need to get races into these horses and that's what we're doing. We'll see what happens. It was asking a lot, pushing Potente from a maiden race to a Grade 2 stakes. You know, when he broke his maiden he really didn't run that fast, but Kazushi Kimura, who rode him, said he wants to go long.

Users will be able to combine multiple selections from the same event into one bet, rather than using pre-set accumulators. That allows for more flexibility and choice when it comes to outcomes, including both race winners and more precise selections about performance. They can also be combined with other sports, meaning you can bet on multiple events in one go.

You know what's great?
