JGP Slovenia Dance Preview

Aldridge and Eaton claimed their first JGP gold medal with a stunning Fiddler on the Roof free skate at JGP Lake Placid.  Yanovskaya and Mozgov just missed the podium at Junior Worlds and finished behind Aldridge and Eaton.  These two teams will be battling for the top spot with Aldridge and Eaton showing improvement and Yanovskaya and Mozgov needing cleaner performances to top their silver medal finish in Austria.

Several teams will be fighting for the final spot on the podium including JGP USA bronze medalists Poulin and Servant, Evdokimova and Bazin who finished 5th in France, Nagornyuk and Kovalenko who finished 6th in Estonia last season, Korotitskaia and Spodirev who finished 4th in France and Bruser and Lum who finished 5th in Lake Placid.
