British-born Sophie Doyle is a daughter of former trainer Jacqueline Doyle and sister to Grade 1-winning European jockey James Doyle. Sophie spent two winters in the U.S. working as an exercise rider before making the move to the country to become a jockey after having had great success as an apprentice jockey in England.
Sophie moved to California in 2013 before shifting to the Kentucky circuit in 2014. In 2015 she gained her first graded stakes win when she partnered with 2015 Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint contender Fioretti to capture the Grade 2 Thoroughbred Club of America Stakes at Keeneland. Doyle captured another Grade 2 win in 2019 when she won the Fair Grounds Oaks aboard Street Band to earn a place in the Longines Kentucky Oaks.
On Sept. 21, Doyle and Street Band won the Cotillion Stakes at Parx Racing to earn a "Win and You're In" berth to the Longines Breeders' Cup Distaff. It was the first Grade 1 win of Doyle's career.
