Do people then claim those big drop downs off of them and actually get decent horses on the cheap and have pretty good success with them in subsequent races? Seems like it might be good for other owners at Arlington...being able to find horses at bargain prices.

When Calabrese/Catalano used to take these big price drops,they would get claimed every so often.
It seemed like the animals would typically run horribly in their next start or two after the claim for some () strange reason. Betting against favorites first off a claim from Calabrese/Catalano used to be one of the best betting angles at the track.
The last two years I have played far less then I did previously, so I'm not sure if the same holds true for Calabrese/Canani.

it still does. FCC has the best equine medical-care money can buy.

I'm sure his horses could dive to record depths.
