    compare two col and place result in cell

    Hello,
    Hoping I can have some assistance with my project please. I am working with Excel formulas.
    In my sheet, Col A changes the data as each race becomes ready, and consists of anywhere between say 5-30 names in the format- 2. Red as per attached sheet.
    I prepare a list of names and place them in Col AK. These names are pruned from the races.
    Now what I would like to be able to automate is when a name appears from the list in ColAK
    in ColA to enter “YES” in cell AL1.This process to then continue as each new race appears.

    Put
    =IF(COUNTIF(A:A,AK1)>0, "yes", "no")
    into AL1
    and copy down the sheet
