Cup of China Dance Preview
Pechalat and Bourzat are the reigning World Bronze medalists but this could be a three-way race for gold. Weaver and Poje train alongside the French and were nipping at their heels all season, finishing just off the podium in 4th place at Worlds. Bobrova and Soloviev showed great improvement in their posture and expression at Skate America and narrowly defeated Weaver and Poje for the silver medal. These teams will be neck and neck and any mistake could cost them the title.
Pechalat and Bourzat are debuting here while the other two teams have already competed twice. They won't have the benefit of judge's feedback on their levels and choreography and will have to shake off some of the competitive rust.
Weaver and Poje lost ground when they didn't achieve the levels they were looking for in their free dance. If they can clean up those elements they should be able to edge out a lead over the Russians. They'll need at least a silver medal if they want a chance to make the Grand Prix Final.
Bobrova and Soloviev have tended the last few seasons to start strong and gradually slip as the season continues. They'll need to buck this trend and show improvement from event to event if they want to hold off up and coming Russian teams. They'l need a medal of any kind to have a shot at the Final but a silver medal or better will give them their best chance.
Two potential spoilers are Chock and Bates who have not won a Grand Prix medal yet but have received rave reviews for their Dr. Zhivago free dance and Sinitsina and Zhiganshin, the reigning World Junior Champions who are making their senior debut.

Cup of China Pairs Preview
Due to injuries, the field at this event has shrunk to only six teams but there will still be a fierce battle for the podium. Pang and Tong won the silver medal at Skate America despite toning down some of their technical fire due to knee injuries. If they can maintain their level of skating or even improve the number of successful jumps, they could earn their second Grand Prix medal of the season.
Kavaguti and Smirnov open their season here. After four Grand Prix medals last season (including one at the Final) they missed Europeans due to injury and finished 7th at Europeans. She's had shoulder injuries that have impacted their career for years and make some of their innovative lifts difficult to perform.
After Moore-Towers and Moscovitch failed to make the Grand Prix Final last season and then missed out on the Canadian Worlds team, they vowed to retool their training and programs and regain their competitiveness. They won gold at the U.S. Figure Skating Classic earlier this season and are determined to regain their spot as the top Canadian Pairs team.
Stolbova and Klimov are an up and coming Russian Pairs team. They already have two World Junior medals as well as a European medal. They won the silver medal at Cup of Nice this past weekend so they'll have a quick turnaround for this event which could affect their ability to perform at the highest level.

Cup of China Ladies Preview
This event is filled with skaters who have had up and down seasons over the last few years and it really could be anybody's game.
Julia Lipnitskaia is making her Grand Prix debut after winning every event she entered last season, including the World Junior title. She made her senior debut at Finlandia Trophy earlier this season and showed some cracks when she finished 2nd in the short program, but she pulled up in the free skate to win the gold medal. She is well known for her impressive flexibility, especially in her spins as well as her jump arsenal including triple+triples. If she can hit her jumps, she can earn the gold medal here.
Kiira Korpi struggled with injuries last season but nearly beat Lipnitskaia at Finlandia Trophy. Her style on the ice is mesmerizing and she can easily win the PCS scores but she'll need to land her triple+triples and other jumps, especially in her free skate if she wants to win her first Grand Prix medal since 2010.
Mao Asada qualified for the Grand Prix Final last season after two medals on the Grand Prix but had to withdraw due to the sudden death of her mother. While her free skate was one of the best choreographed of the season she struggled to land the jumps toward the end of the season and finished 6th at Worlds for the 2nd year in a row.
Mirai Nagasu could win the whole event or fall somewhere toward the middle of the pack. She has a history of making silly mistakes in her programs such as falling out of spins that cost her big points. She changed her coaching situation in the off-season and seemed much happier and relaxed on the ice at an exhibition performance in September. She is also only scheduled for one Grand Prix event this season so she'll want to put up a good score and get herself in a better position for two Grand Prix events in the Olympic year. She had a decent showing at Finlandia but finished 3rd behind two ladies that are competing here by almost 20 points.
