Is this a Stoplight or a Mammy croton?

I bought a few of these years back on a whim, they were marked as Stoplight crotons. Recently have been finding more love for Crotons and would like some help getting a solid ID on this one. 
 

The underside of each leaf has a horn-like protrusion near the tip of the midrib, shown in pic 2. Leaves seem to curl as they age. 
 

They’ve excelled in 10b in both partial and full sun, FWIW.
