Carl O’Callaghan is the toast of Newmarket on Fergus today after hitting the big time with Kinsale King in the Dubai Golden Shaheen at Meydan.
The Clare born trainer, who is the son of well known local entertainer Shay, is now being tipped to be one of the success stories at Royal Ascot in June after his 7-1 charge under Garrett Gomez beat off competition from the bookies’ favourite Rocket Man to win yesterday’s six-furlong contest.
O’Callaghan has trained in California since the early 1990s. He is also well known in the Irish community along the US West coast as a singer and entertainer.
