Digiturf.com interviews Gw Stable on winning his Championship Series
What did it feel like for you to win your Championship Series?
It felt great after I saw the replay, and realized the horse had really done it. I was in awe. How optimistic were you about winning and who was your biggest rival in your races?
Indigo Power had won the two qualifiers which were the same distance and going. I still wasn't optimistic about it because he had run in a WFA against some big horses, finished 4th and flipped. He was barely raceable, and if we had raced on Sunday, he wouldn't have won. I was thankful we ran on Monday instead, though others weren't. What routines do you follow before the race?
I didn't get to follow much of a routine for any racing championship weekend. I had a wedding to attend, and a fantasy football meeting to run, so I watched most all of my races on replay. When the Sunday race wasn't run, I contacted Digi and was told it would be rescheduled for Monday. I had to work during the race Monday, so I watched the rerun. I noticed I had an unread message, so I guess the first person I shared the victory with was Jay of Barton Stud. How do you prepare for a Championship Series & what advice would you give other trainers?
I guess now I would say keep your horse in tiptop shape, make sure he is equipped properly because these top trainers will show no mercy. They will help, but they won't win for you. Keep your chin up because eventually the good one will come to you. I waited about 10 seasons for IP. What would you do differently in future Championship Series?
I would not run a horse in a distance it doesn't excel in just to see how it does. How do you celebrate winning a Championship Series?
I really haven't celebrated much. I'm a quiet kind of guy. I bought some new colts and fillies, so not much big spending. Final Comments:
Anyone who hasn't tried this website don't know what they are really missing. I'm glad I happened upon it in 2009. I am also glad to get the first championship out of the way. The Digiturf.com Team
