Joaquin Jaime is a FanDuel TV racing host, analyst and reporter.

Joaquin can be seen on the main desk in the FanDuel TV studios or at the racetrack, interviewing connections from the paddock or winner’s circle, or roaming the barns with all the horses giving his report on the top contenders for the feature race. Joaquin started with the network as a Researcher in 2006, just a few months after

Unlike many in the industry, Joaquin does not hail from a racing background. Born and raised in Fresno, California, his fascination with Thoroughbred racehorses started at a very young age. Joaquin developed his passion for the sport by going to live races with his parents at the Big Fresno Fair at the age of three. It wasn’t too many years after that when his uncle started to show him how to handicap and read the Daily Racing Form. By the time he was in his early 20’s, was still not sure what occupation he wanted to pursue. All Joaquin knew was that he truly would not be happy if he was not working in the sport of Thoroughbred horse racing.

In college, Joaquin accepted a Division I soccer scholarship at Saint Mary's in Moraga, CA. By moving to the Bay Area, it was the first time in his life he was able to attend year-round horse racing at Bay Meadows, Golden Gate, Pleasanton or Santa Rosa.

Joaquin’s favorite horse of all-time is Alysheba. Outside of racing, Joaquin likes to go golfing and is also a fan of soccer and baseball, with his favorite team being the Los Angeles Dodgers. Joaquin and his wife reside in the South Bay beach communities in Los Angeles and enjoy being outdoors, working out, and heading down to the beach for a bike ride.
