He is from the female family of Grade I winner and $4,714,213-earner Perfect Drift.
Force the Pass, who entered stud in 2020 at Anchor & Hope Farm in Port Deposit, Maryland, stands for $4,000 live foal. He is the subject of an incentive program offering a rebated stud fee to breeders if he is not the Mid-Atlantic's leading freshman sire in 2023 with his first crop runners.
