Considered tall for a jockey at 5' 8", Callaghan competed in his native Barbados where his success led him to relocate in 1994 to a base at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Among his victories, Callaghan captured the 2002 Breeders' Stakes, a Canadian Classic Race. In 2004 he traveled to his homeland where he won the country's most prestigious race, the Barbados Gold Cup.
