Lava Man was claimed in his 13th start. Lonnie Arterburn trained him as a 2 & 3yo.

13! Okay I am thinking of another horse claimed out of their first then, not him, though he is obviously one of the best claims in history.

Stymie as good a claim as there's ever been.

Spooky.

(edit - before I get beaten up here I mean he was a pretty good claim, not the greatest in history or anything).

Princequillo arguably was the greatest claim in racing.

Taking Risks was claimed by King T. for 20k and earned over a half mil in the mid 90's.
