The partnership with jockey W J Lee has been one of the more productive relationships in Keke's career. Together they have won 4 from 13 races — that is almost 1 in every 3 they have lined up for — which in racing terms is an excellent return. When Lee is in the saddle, something clicks. Edward Lynam, who trains Keke from his yard in Dunshaughlin, County Meath, has had a solid season with 5 winners sent out, and Keke is clearly one of his sharper tools.
What really stands out, though, is Keke's relationship with Naas racecourse. Two wins from just 4 races there is not a coincidence — that is a horse that genuinely suits the track. Some horses find a course that fits them like a glove, and Naas appears to be exactly that for Keke. The most recent example came just this week, winning there on 4 July 2026. That is not a horse fading into the background — that is a horse at the top of its game right now.
The recent form backs it up: two wins from the last 6 races, with a third place tucked in as well. Keke first won at Bellewstown back in September 2023, and in the time since has developed into a reliable, competitive performer. This is not a horse that flattered once and disappeared — it has kept delivering. For anyone new to racing, Keke is a good example of what genuine quality looks like: not flashy, not unbeaten, but turning up week after week and finding a way to be there at the finish.
