He rode in his first race in 1958, and was crowned champion apprentice in 1959. He retired in 1982, after which he began training. He won the Grand National as a jockey on L'Escargot in 1975 and as a trainer with Bobbyjo in 1999. Carberry also rode L'Escargot to successive Cheltenham Gold Cups in 1970 and 1971.[2][3]

In 1973 he rode Inkslinger to victory in the Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival.

In 1975 he rode the winner in the Cheltenham Gold Cup, Aintree Grand National and Irish Grand National. He rode Ten Up to victory in the Cheltenham Gold Cup. It was Carberry's third win in the race. His Aintree Grand National win was on L'Escargot when he beat Red Rum who was trying for a third successive victory in the race. He won the 1975 Irish Grand National on Brown Lad.

He won the Irish Grand National again in 1976 on Brown Lad.

In 1980 he rode Tied Cottage in the Cheltenham Gold Cup. The horse finished the race first but Tied Cottage was later disqualified for testing positive for a banned substance.[2]
