Her most recent position however, is ‘Mum’ to her little boy Finbarr, who is already an avid race-goer having had his race-day debut at only six weeks old at The 2000 Guineas at Newmarket back in the Spring.
Samantha has created several successful marketing campaigns in the past and her previous experience in design and marketing has proven to be a great asset to the HPX team.
Samantha thinks of herself as a lover of the whole race-day experience and attends many race days throughout the year for work and for fun – her favourite being Royal Ascot with her husband Josh.
