Default espalier training with tip bearing apple tree?

I have two young apple trees ,one is sunset which is a spur bearer i have
planted this against a fence to train as espalier i would also like to do
the same with apple discovery which is tip bearing.I have found out recently
that tip bearers are not good for training as espaliers.
Has anyone trained one & had success or are you best to plant tip bearers as
standards?
They are for a fence in the vegetable garden or can they be trained with
another method?
