# How to navigate the ratings

How-to all plans

There are several ways into the ratings: the dashboard's Today's Races panel, the WebRatings menu item, and the course tabs, time chips and navigation arrows on any race page.

There are several ways to open a race and see its ratings. Use whichever suits how you're browsing.

## From the dashboard

The **Today's Races** panel is the quickest way in. Switch between **Today** and **Tomorrow**, pick a meeting from the **Select Races** dropdown (or a card from **Racecards**), then jump straight in with **First Race** or **Next Race Off**:

## From the menu

**WebRatings** in the main menu opens the ratings from anywhere on the site:

## Moving around on a race page

Once a race is open, you can move all around the day's racing without going back.

**Switch course or race.** The course tabs (Carlisle, Naas and so on) and the time chips beneath them jump to any race at that meeting. Click **All** to load every race at the course at once:

**Open the whole card.** Click the **course name** in the race header to bring up the rest of that course's races:

**Step through the day.** The controls on the right move you through the racing: first race, previous race, **All** races, next race, and on to the next day:

## Next steps

With a race open, you can [sort by any column](https://ratingtheraces.com/tools-features/sort-columns/) to re-rank the field, or [customise which columns are shown](https://ratingtheraces.com/tools-features/customize-ratings-view/) to keep only what you need. To understand the figures you're reading, see the [ratings columns reference](https://ratingtheraces.com/understanding-the-ratings/ratings-columns-reference/), and if a page won't load, see [The ratings won't load or display correctly](https://ratingtheraces.com/troubleshooting/ratings-not-loading/).
