About
Surreal I Am, a 5yo bay or brown gelding from Australia, is trained by John McArdle. He is by I Am Invincible out of Real Surreal and has recorded five career victories. On 19 Sep 2025 at Newcastle he captured his most important triumph, winning the $50,000 5yo & up BM 64 Handicap. The horse has consistently delivered value to bettors; backing him throughout his career would have generated a 70% return on investment.
