Jacques Doyasbère (Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, Val-de-Marne, 26 December 1919 – Paris, 3 November 1969) was a French thoroughbred racing jockey.[1]

One of his country's top jockeys of all time, Doyasbère was closely linked to the racing teams of two of the greatest French racing stables of the 1940s and 1950s, those of Marcel Boussac and François Dupré. He won virtually every important race in France more than once, including a record four wins in the country's most prestigious event, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
