Speed ‘N’ Reef is the oldest and most experienced horse in Saturday’s Tabtouch Carnarvon Cup, but trainer Jacquelyn Scott holds out strong hope he still has plenty of life left in his legs.

If Jenabel reproduces her last win, trainer Natalie Burke is confident of success in the Peter Evans Memorial Handicap (1700m) at Carnarvon on Sunday.

Jockey Colin Haddon is confident Desert Thorn can justify his market status and win the Tabtouch Broome Sprint (1300m) for the second time in three years on Tuesday.
