The owners of the remarkable mare, I Am Me, were delighted to announce that their prized horse has been selected by Sportsbet to represent their slot in the $5M Kia Quokka, set to take place at Ascot Racecourse on Saturday, April 26, 2025.

The deal was expertly negotiated by Adam Watt from Dynamic Syndications, alongside the team at Sportsbet. Nathan Arundell, Sportsbet’s Chief Commercial Officer, expressed his excitement about the partnership with Dynamic Syndications and renowned trainer Ciaron Maher, stating, “Sportsbet values and supports innovation and entertainment in all sports and racing. After finishing fourth in the first two years, we’re hoping to break through this year.”

To mark this collaboration and underscore the significance of the Quokka race, I Am Me will sport specially designed Racing Silks featuring a charming quokka caricature. This move acknowledges the race’s growing appeal among racing enthusiasts across Australia.

With an outstanding record of 11 wins and 6 placings from 27 starts, I Am Me has accumulated earnings of $4,701,100. Five of her victories have been in Stakes Races, highlighting her exceptional ability.

I Am Me’s next challenge is the G1 T.J. Smith 1200m on April 5, with Tim Clark as her jockey, serving as a lead-up to the Kia Quokka. Her notable achievements include victories in the G2 Missile Stakes at Rosehill and the G3 $2M Sydney Stakes at Randwick. She also holds the track record at Canterbury over 1200m, having won the Listed Canterbury Sprint.

Additionally, I Am Me has triumphed in the G3 The Concorde over 1000m and the G2 The Shorts over 1100m, both at Randwick. She is a five-time G1 performer, with runner-up finishes in the Manikato Stakes at Moonee Valley and the Rupert Clarke at Caulfield, as well as third-place finishes in the William Reid Stakes at Moonee Valley. She also placed fourth in the G1 Sangster and Goodwood, both at Morphettville.

After an unlucky third-place finish in the G2 Challenge Stakes over 1000m, I Am Me has recovered well and is gearing up for the Kia Quokka, arriving fourth-up in her preparation.

Last spring, I Am Me won The Concorde and The Shorts, the first two legs of the Sportsbet Sydney Sprint Series, ultimately finishing third and earning a $250,000 bonus. Her success has allowed her Dynamic co-ownership team to “live the dream” of racehorse ownership.

Thanks to Sportsbet’s confidence in I Am Me, she will journey across the Nullarbor, aiming to further solidify her stellar reputation.
