DEN / AC / UA code share

What are the rules when flying AC code share when it comes to standby? I'm scheduled for the last flight tomorrow (DEN-YYZ, AC operated by UA), I'd like to maybe arrive at the airport earlier and try and get on AC1042. My flight is AC5698 operated by United. Do the same Tango Plus rules apply? UA operates the AC checkin at DEN, I've heard they're not overly helpful when it comes to AC flight changes etc.

Any past experiences with a situation like this?

thanks.

Fare rules applicable according to airline code used.
BTW UA hasn't handled checkin nor gates for AC for a while now.
I believe LH now handles AC at DEN.
