If you are playing just one horse every race then you are essentially playing an aggressive win bet strategy.

It's not a pick4 strategy.
It's a partial win parlay strategy spanning 4 to 6 races.
I think the strategy in the article offers recreational players a way to have some fun on those handful of visits to the track each year.
But for the serious player, or the + EV player with an edge:
I'd say the strategy in the article would be a really bad way to approach long term bet sizing.
