Yoshitomi Shibata (柴田 善臣, Shibata Yoshitomi) (born July 30, 1966, in Tōhoku, Aomori) is a Japanese Horse racing jockey. He was a three-time champion jockey of Kantō, riding 2000 victories in his career.

He comes from a racing family; most notably his uncle Masato Shibata [ja], who was a prolific jockey who won over 4,000 races during his career. He rode his first winner in 1985, on Izumi-Sanei at Nakayama. He was Japanese champion apprentice in 1985. He won his first grade race in 1988, riding Soushin-Houju in the Nakayama Himba Stakes.

He earned his 2000th career victory at Nakayama while riding Nakayama Knight [ja], on 17 December 2011.

On November 5, 2022, Shibata became the oldest JRA jockey to win a race after he winning a race at the Fukushima Race Course while riding Billecart, a record he would break 2 weeks later at the Fukushima Min'yu Cup with Verdad Imeru. That same year Shibata was awarded the Medal with Yellow Ribbon, becoming the first active JRA jockey to win a Medal.
