Although this event won't be as interesting as ice dance (you have Chock/Bates, Ruslena, Niktoria, and other countless medal-worthy pairs), I think the main question would be who is gunning for that silver medal...

Can't wait! :popcorn:

Big opportunity to Mirai and So Youn

MY prediction
1.Pogorilaya

ugh I know what you mean! I want to place her on 2nd place right away but knowing that she's a bit unreliable sometimes, it's really tough where to place her. I'm probably putting her 3rd or fourth for this one just to see if she's more mentally secure with the pressure now on her to be Korea's next top skater

I'm not expecting her to do clean programs at all btw but I really don't want her to bomb away like in Sochi or in her JGP USA event

I really hope that Mirai can redeem herself at her final GP of the year.

Silver and Bronze up for grab.

flutz16 · Nov 10, 2014

silver and bronze is anybodys game and up for grabs

Alchamei · Nov 10, 2014

I will cry of happiness if Mirai and So Youn make the podium! :clap:

The truth is, the battle for podium is wide open. But the chance is so big...

randomfan · Nov 10, 2014

Are both of the Russian Marias good? If they aren't then So Youn and Mirai have good chances of winning silver and bronze. Gold will go to Anna Pogorilaya unless she messes up badly.

Here's how some of their programs look like. I would say they're part of the middle-tier group in Russia. Who knows what might happen in CoR though. Other than Anna for the gold, the rest of the medals can go to anyone. I think Maria S. and Maria A. would have to REALLY step up to get more recognized internationally and by RSF.

I wish they chose Nikol Gosviani as the replacement for Adelina, since she is such a lovely skaters with some unique qualities. Wonder what happened to her this year.

Nikol is also injured - she also withdraw from Rostelecom and Maria Artemieva replaced her

Funny how the country with the best female skaters has the weakest GP.

surimi · Nov 11, 2014

Is it just my computer, or are the links for Nagasu's and Wang's bios not clickable?

Mangomango · Nov 11, 2014

Anna for gold and So Youn for silver!! (Would be amazing to see her on the podium)
Not sure about the bronze though... I think Rika Hongo or maybeeeee Mirai. But I feel like Mirai's skating is very heavy and slow now.

Amer · Nov 11, 2014

My prediction:
Gold - Pogorilaya
Silver - Hongo
Bronze - Park

Yeah, this one should be a cake walk for Pogorilaya.

flutz16 · Nov 11, 2014

Pogorilaya has no pressure
even with bronze she'd still make the GPF not to mention this is a very weak field
