Hype means nothing to jockey Dwayne Dunn as he prepares to keep Deep Field's spring aspirations on track at Canterbury.

Deep Field scored by 10 lengths on debut in a Gosford maiden over 1100m last month, running 1.7 seconds faster than the winner of a Class Two race on the same day.

Dunn says Deep Field impressed him with the ease of his first-up win but the Northern Meteor colt needs to keep delivering, starting with Wednesday's TAB Quaddie Handicap (1100m) at Canterbury.

"He's untapped at the moment," Dunn said.

"What I've seen of him I'm very impressed with but we might as well let him produce the wraps on himself rather than us put the wraps on him."

Because Deep Field began racing late in his three-year-old season, Dunn concedes this could pose a problem for Hawkes Racing if they decide to plot a spring campaign.

Dunn knows Deep Field can only help himself get into spring sprinting features by continuing the winning start to his career in Wednesday's race for three-year-olds who haven't won in the city.

"The difficulty with him is that he's rising four (years old) and to get to the better class of races, he has got to get his rating up," Dunn said.

"I think they (Hawkes Racing) are trying to help that along as much as they can without putting him under too much pressure. Hopefully he gets to the league we expect him to."

Deep Field is one of four rides for Dunn at Canterbury with the John Sargent and Peter and Paul Snowden stables booking him for mounts.

Dunn welcomed the chance to travel to Sydney to advertise his talents to trainers before the spring carnival racing action.

"You just don't know what it might lead to during the spring," he said.

"Even though they are lesser-class races, they do hold a bit of substance for the spring."
