Born in Watford, Hertfordshire, Mackail-Smith began his career with the youth system at St Albans City in 1999.

Mackail-Smith made his first starting appearance for the club in a 1–1 draw away to Gravesend & Northfleet in the Full Members Cup third round, resulting in a 4–3 defeat on penalties after a penalty shoot-out.

However, he scored his first senior goal in a 2–0 win away to Hertford Town in the Herts Senior Cup second round on 20 November 2001. In 2002–03, Mackail-Smith continued to find his first-team opportunities limited, making just five starting appearances from 22 matches in all competitions. He scored once in a 3–2 win away to Hampton & Richmond Borough on 26 April 2003.
