I have two, Slammin Sam who showed a few flashes of talent at three when he was stakes placed before tailing off and dropping into claimers. He still runs well from time to time--though not since his last claim.
The other is T.K's Honour who bobs back and forth it seems from a/oc and straight claimers. An honest horse who wins when he is placed right.

Here in northern California my favorite claimer is a cheap $4k horse named Proud Patrolman - I think he's 8 y.o. and he's still winning (just won on the fair circuit this week and paid $5.60)... I used to be a cop so I guess that's why I've paid attention to him... I also really like Robs Coin at the SoCal tracks because it seems that whenever he goes off at long odds he's in the money...

He's not always in for a price, but Spooky Mulder spent most of his career as a claimer (started out at Turfway, claimed and sent to NY).
But my favorite has to be Tubby Cat, who was at one time (part-)owned by some friends of mine. He won three in a row for them after they claimed him (I'm in one of his winner's circle photos), continued to run well for new connections after they lost him. He's now 9 and just won a $5K claimer in Oklahoma; if there were more starter races at 10f, he'd probably have more lifetime wins.

I like "Work", who used to be/still is with Ron Moquett.
That poor horse always looks like he is about to die in the paddock, and usually runs a clunker. But every once in a while he will pop up and win. There is another named "Microbodgit" who I have followed for a couple of years. Poor little thing never wins either but I scored on her at Keeneland in the fall a couple of years ago. Also, Jason Reed had a horse at Keeneland named Mechanic that I think ended up on the Mid-Atlantic circuit and I used to like him a whole lot.

As discussed last week, West End Lady put me in the winners circle for the first time last week.
Another horse I have a share in, Social Account goes tomorrow as the favorite in the 6th at Penn National.
