Speed Grader not Showing all Quizzes from Students

How do I get to see the quizzes of all the students when Speed Grader shows only a few students' submission?  When I choose "Moderate Quiz" it shows me the submissions of all the students but speed grader shows only 14 out of more than 100 students.
