Divining Rod wins Grade 3 Coolmore Lexington at Keeneland (The Associated Press)

Divining Rod’s points standing puts him just outside the cutoff for the Kentucky Derby that goes off three weeks from now at Churchill Downs. Being part of the field will require some reshuffling among the hopefuls and a quick recovery by Divining Rod, but trainer Arnaud Delacour said nothing’s out of the question after the dark brown colt’s convincing victory Saturday in the $250,000 Coolmore Lexington at Keeneland. Divining Rod took charge entering the stretch to win the Grade 3 race, good enough for 10 more points that gave him 20 overall toward the May 2 Run for the Roses and put him in a six-way tie for 23rd place. We’ll consider it for sure.” Divining Rod provided something to think about with his first graded stakes victory.
