What's New at RatingTheRaces: Recent Releases

26 Jun 2026 · RatingTheRaces

🚀 It has been a busy couple of months, so here is a rundown of what we have shipped. And the biggest change is the one you are looking at right now.

🌐 A brand-new website

If you are reading this, you are on our new website. We have moved your login and payment details onto a faster, more secure platform, which means a smoother, more reliable service all round. Signing up, upgrading and cancelling (not that we ever want you to) should all be much easier from here on.

📊 New ratings tools, mostly for Premium and Pro

Most of these are for Premium and Pro members, with a few for everyone:

  • 📉 Trading Short stat: a new dashboard stat that highlights horses who have traded short in recent runs, handy for finding ones to back before a race and potentially lay in the run.
  • 🔍 R Filter: filter the R figures by code, so you can look only at figures achieved on the Flat, over hurdles or over fences. A much-requested addition that will really come into its own once the National Hunt season is in full swing.
  • 📈 RTR Rank 1 ProStats: the ProStats panel at the foot of each race now includes filters built around the race's top-ranked runners, showing how the trainer, jockey and sire perform in that type of race and at that course.
  • 🎬 Analysis video section: a new home on your dashboard for our analysis videos, so they are easier to find when we upload them.
  • 💹 Odds history graph: view a horse's odds history as a graph as well as in numbers.

🏇 Better race cards

  • 🧭 Course direction now shows on the race card, with the related stat coming soon.
  • 🪄 Smarter columns: empty columns such as Win PR, IR Low (in-running low) and NAPs are now hidden until there is data to show.
  • 🧹 National Hunt tidy-up: Draw and Draw by Distance no longer appear for National Hunt races, where they do not apply.

🏆 The NAP Competition

  • 🔄 Replace non-runners: if one of your picks comes out, you can swap it for another horse, and you will get a heads-up by email and on X.
  • 📣 Share to X: posting your results to X is now much easier.
  • 🎁 Free Friday ratings: free members can now unlock Friday's ratings just by entering the competition twice during the week.
  • Polished tweets: our Daily Winners, plus the weekly and monthly competition-winner tweets, have all had a refresh.

⚡ Faster downloads

The XLS and CSV downloads are quicker and more reliable, and you now get a notification to confirm your download is being prepared.

🔧 And plenty more under the hood

On top of the headline features, we have refreshed a long list of smaller things: NagMe, mobile responsiveness, the menus, our email communications and early ratings for Pro members. Best of all, the ratings themselves are now faster and more reliable.

👀 There is plenty more still to come, so keep an eye on this space.
