Introducing

Samuel Taylor

Samuel Taylor - RMA 2026

Horses have been part of Samuel’s life since his younger sister was given a pony for her eleventh birthday, an introduction that sparked his long-term involvement in the sport. Now a 21-year-old undergraduate at the University of Nottingham, he uses the relationships he has built within the industry to organise exclusive race day experiences for friends and fellow students.

Samuel also has experience in video editing and graphic design, skills he hopes will allow him to contribute meaningfully to JSC’s powerful social media presence. He is keen to develop a deeper understanding of the racing PR industry and sees JSC as the best place to do so.

Racing Media Academy – The Experience

​My time with the RMA proved to be an invaluable experience. The week-long induction offered deep industry insights, featuring engaging talks and hands-on practical sessions led by industry experts. A major highlight was speaking live on Sky Sports with Josh, an opportunity I am deeply grateful for. My placement with JSC provided a comprehensive look into horseracing PR, where I gained practical experience managing client social media accounts and handling press accreditation for the Epsom Derby. I couldn’t recommend it more!
