His career has sunk down over the years and it is not looking good for him.

Really nice guy but could not perform at the top level and was only good when he drove with fuel.

Yeah that was a waste of a day.  Was there almost all day for 3 drives and no checks.  He will still do very well at the Delaware tracks and earn a very nice living.  But I agree he is no longer relaxant at M1 like when he went by “The Captain”.  His stats at Harrahs Philly are even way down.  Has tailed off the last few seasons.  Almost seems disinterested.  Makes a lot of bad decisions on the track and has lost most of the big stables he once drove for.  Still a good guy and above average on a smaller circuit.  tmbz1

Nice guy who was on the verge of being a grand circuit star circa 2008, 2009, etc. Now is lucky that Delaware keeps the slot welfare rolling or he would be out of the business.

Watch to see how often he shows up at Ocean Downs this summer for Md. sire stakes drives as his business goes completely dry at the Meadowlands and he is an after thought on bigger days at Chester. Yesterdays news for many years now and the stock he was rolling with at M1 back in the day was juiced beyond the gills. Has very little talent beyond that.

The Maryland Sire Stakes is where he will make the most of what he has left as far as driving skills

driving for Hans and those young Googoo's  that is where he a factor vs those drivers

He hasnt done much at M1 for several years

about a dozen years ago he drove a nice Grand Circuit quality mare named Jerseylicious for Wayne Givens

he also drove one of my favorite mares named Monochromatic--just the local Open mares races but he drove her flawlessly

He drove a real good horse for George Teague when his star was beginning to shine. Good guy for sure.

I am always amazed whenever I look up some of these guys fines and suspensions. It is free on Pathway.
Callahan has 343 rulings.
He has been fined over $60,000.
Most of it just little stuff.
In 2023 alone he was fined 4 times for failing to keep both feet in the stirrups at $200 a crack.

Had him once drive my mare she went off 1/9 he threw the lines to her trying to 1/4 pole move to front and she jumped like a Gazelle! That was the only time I ever used him. Very overrated in my opinion.

He's part of the Delaware syndicate, Davis, Morgan, etc. who regularly play poker with 20k buy ins and have  taken the majority of purse and wagering dollars in Delaware for many years.  I'm sure he's doing fine, unless he's a terrible poker player.
