I was going to argue for Slughorn the Hufflepuff, but then I recalled that he showed extreme favoritism to the kids in his Slug Club but ignored kids he didn't find good enough for Slug Club inclusion, though he did give them a fair enough shake in the classroom. Plus, he was less selective for his post-OWL classes than Snape. However, I keep coming back to the favoritism. That's not a very Hufflepuff trait because it's unfair and we Puffs are very fairness- and equality-minded. However, he did have to be quite smart to take notice of kids when they're just teenagers, see their potential greatness and then come back later to benefit when his Slug Club members did become well-known. (He tended to have a pretty good batting average when it came to that, too.) Plus, he had to be very clever to know about the process of creating Horcruxes and he rewarded Harry's ability in creating a difficult potion--even though Harry did get a big assist in so doing. Therefore, I too present an argument for Horace Slughorn the Ravenclaw!
