Autohotkey send shortcut

I want to add some keypresses after a shortcut in Visual Studio. When pressing the shortcut Ctrl + 0, Ctrl + G it should be executed in Visual Studio and after that 9 Tabs should be pressed.

I came up with this:

^0::
IfWinActive Visual Studio
{
    Input, OutputVar, T1 L1
    if OutputVar == g
        Send, ^0^g
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
        Send, {Tab}
}
return

The check for the shortcut works so far, but sending ^0^g it does nothing

    }
