Faiyum

Faiyum is a 4-year-old who has won 3 of her 9 races — a respectable win rate of roughly one win in every three outings — and has picked up seven additional places that show a horse with genuine ability across different days. What makes him genuinely interesting is the partnership he has built with jockey Colin Keane, who has steered him to victory in 3 of their 5 rides together, a win rate of 60 percent. That kind of consistency between horse and rider doesn't happen by accident; Keane clearly knows how to get the best out of him.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Her win record started promisingly with a first career victory at Naas on 23 March 2025, but the gap since her last success — a win at Gowran Park on 20 September 2025, now 13 months in the past — suggests she has hit a rough patch. Her recent form across the last six races tells the story: two places in quick succession, then a mid-field run, followed by third, fourth, and an eighth-place finish most recently, just over a day ago. That's a horse who hasn't found the winner's circle in a long while, despite decent placings that prove she still belongs in competitive races.

Trained by G. M. Lyons at Dunsany in County Meath, Faiyum runs for a yard firing on all cylinders this season with 43 winners already sent out. The team clearly knows how to prepare winners, and Lyons' record suggests there is every reason to believe Faiyum can return to winning ways. At 4 years old and still active, he has time to find his form again — especially with Keane in the saddle, where history shows he is at his very best.
