Hollie Doyle Announced As Goodwood Ambassador For 2018
2018 has kicked off in style with Hollie breaking through the 100 career winners mark when steering Ay Ay to victory. She will be hoping to enjoy further success as the British flat turf season builds up a head of steam and she looks sure to add to her Listed Stakes win from last season aboard Billesdon Bess.
Hollie will also be taking part in the 2018 Silk Series, a £150,000 race series for female jockeys across thirteen British racecourses which showcases talent and supports Cancer Research UK. The Goodwood leg of The Silk Series will take place on Sunday, August 26, at their three-day August Bank Holiday fixture.
Hollie will also be providing content for Goodwood’s social media channels from her experiences at the Hannon yard.
Hollie Doyle, ambassador for Goodwood Racecourse, said;
“I’m unbelievably excited to be taking up this role with Goodwood. It’s one of the most iconic and beautiful courses in the country and is a favourite of mine. The Qatar Goodwood festival is an obvious stand-out of the calendar – but racing here is great throughout the year and I can’t wait to get down there this season.”
