Sandown Park Racecourse
Tetratema never contested a maiden race, beginning his racing career by winning the valuable National Breeder's Produce Stakes over five furlongs at Sandown Park Racecourse. At Goodwood in July he was ridden by Carslake to a four length victory in the £850 Molecomb Stakes at odds of 1/2 defeating a well-regarded colt named Orpheus, the winner of the New Stakes, "in a canter".
