Having watched this world from the inside, the Horizon Award isn't just some rookie trophy. The fact that it carries Nicky Hayden's name tells you the weight of expectation attached to it. Gibson putting up top finishes across multiple classes means his riding was probably rock solid corner entry to exit.
