Adrian Heskin cannot wait to ride The Tullow Tank for the first time.

Heskin has replaced Danny Mullins as owner Barry Connell's retained rider and The Tullow Tank is one of the headline acts.

Trained by Philip Fenton to win at the highest level over hurdles, he is now with Dessie Hughes and is set to embark on a novice chasing career. He holds an entry at Punchestown on Wednesday.

"He looks special and I'm really looking forward to riding him," Heskin told At The Races.

"The plan is to go chasing this season.

"He was a great novice over hurdles and if he keeps on progressing he'll be a very nice horse."
