Lottie joins NAF as the Racing Account Executive for the North and has a wealth of experience across all equine disciplines. She studied equine management at Brackenhurst College, is an accomplished instructor and has owned and competed horses for the majority of her life.

Lottie started her career in America working in show jumping, before switching to racing and becoming Travelling Head Girl for the likes of trainers Sue and Harvey Smith, Richard Phillips and Jamie Osborne.

She is mum to twins with her partner Jimmy McCarthy, Jamie’s assistant trainer. Upon Jimmy's retirement, they were gifted yard favourite, the globetrotting Toast of New York. Lottie has retrained Toast and he is now very much enjoying his second career, alongside her dressage and show horse Frank.
