Veteran trainer Howard Wilson believes he can provide a winner for "longshot" punters in today's A$1 million Magic Millions Trophy at the Gold Coast.

Wilson, who began training on the coastal strip 25 years ago, believes Spot On Target can cause an upset in the 1400m feature.

Spot On Target, a Danny Nikolic mount, is a A$71 chance with TAB Sportsbet with Shoot Out the A$4.80 favourite.

Wilson believes his colt is way over the odds. "No one is picking my horse and he's a A$71 chance but I can tell you he's a lot better prospect than that."
