James Doyle was born on 22nd April 1988 and is a respected horse racing jockey. During his early childhood days in Cambridgeshire, England, Doyle showed a keen interest in horses. His father was himself trainer and so it was always likely that he too would show an interest in the sport too. Regardless of the precise reasoning behind his entering professional racing, Doyle certainly has an aptitude for it.

From 2014 to the present day, James Doyle has been one of the few retained jockeys to Godolphin Racing in the United Kingdom. He mainly steers horses coached by Saeed bin Suroor. A no doubt lucrative professional partnership.

Having partnered with Richard Prince, whose gelding Farnborough he steered to a decisive win, the spirited star constantly rose to unimaginably coveted career heights. His several other major triumphs are: the time-honored Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud – (1) – Noble Mission (2014), the highly competitive Prix Jacques Le Marois – (1) – Kingman (2014), the routine Great Britain Champion Stakes – (1) – Noble Mission (2014), a notable title in the Eclipse Stakes – (1) – Al Kazeem (2013), famously applauded during the stars-decorated Falmouth Stakes – (1) – Amazing Maria (2015), as well as a clear victory in the Lockinge Stakes – (1) – Night of Thunder (2015).

James Doyle is always counted among the most hardworking jockeys, up there wih the likes of Luke Morris, a contemporary now described as Europe’s busiest jockey.
