Download the ratings as CSV or XLS

Premium and Professional members can pull a full race card out of the browser as a CSV or XLS file and work with the ratings in their own spreadsheet.

Sometimes you want the ratings in a spreadsheet rather than on screen, to sort your own way, add columns, or keep a record. RatingTheRaces lets you export a full race card as a CSV or XLS file. Downloads are included with Premium and Professional accounts.

How to download

1. Open the day's racing in WebRatings and go to the meeting or race you want.
2. Use the download option and choose your format:
   • CSV, a plain comma-separated file that opens anywhere and imports cleanly into any spreadsheet or script.
   • XLS, an Excel workbook that keeps the layout closer to what you see on screen.
3. Save the file, then open it, see Opening the file in Excel or Sheets.

CSV or XLS, which should I take?

• Take CSV if you're going to import the data somewhere, feed it into your own model, or you just want the raw numbers with no fuss.
• Take XLS if you'd rather open a ready-made, formatted workbook and read it much as it looks on the site.

What's in the file

The export carries the ratings and stats columns for the runners in that card. For what each heading means, keep the ratings columns reference open alongside it.
