The Tetrarch Stakes is a Listed flat horse race in Ireland open to three-year-old thoroughbreds. It is run over a distance of 7 furlongs (1,408 metres) at the Curragh in early May.

History

The event is named after The Tetrarch, a successful Irish racehorse foaled in 1911.

For a period the Tetrarch Stakes held Group 3 status. It was downgraded to Listed level in 2011.

The race is currently sponsored by Coolmore Stud. Its sponsored title includes the name of Churchill, a Coolmore stallion.

The Tetrarch Stakes can serve as a trial for the Irish 2,000 Guineas. The last horse to win both races was Awtaad in 2016.
