It's boxing 2x4x18 the way he laid it out ( with neither of the first two horses in the second slot ).
I must be very bored ( and at least a little pathetic ) to have thought this lunacy through. It's a moronic play, especially at a 25% takeout.

His example is wrong. In order to hit twice don't you need to include his first place picks in slot 2?
Sh*t if I was as dialed in as he to hit 7 Derby Trifecta's in a row. Given his example,I'd take that $864 and play a $144 Exacta 2x3
