I think what you are asking for is to check for the "Fail" at the beginning of the text string.
If so, this
=COUNTIF(Status1:Status10, LEFT(@cell, 4) = "Fail")
would count the first 10 rows of the [Status] column.
This would count the whole [Status] column
=COUNTIF(Status:Status, LEFT(@cell, 4) = "Fail")
I hope this helps.
