Cotton End is dropped in class and her two autumn runs look good enough on paper with Patrick Mullins on board for the first time. However, she has not looked the easiest of rides and Scorpion's progeny can be fragile. With that in mind MYSTICAL MOVER gets the vote. Jamie Codd is a highly significant booking given his strike rate for the yard. She needs to improve on her debut effort in order to figure, but that was a stronger race than this and there must be a realistic chance that she has learnt enough to put up a good display.
