JGP Austria Dance Preview

Yanovskaya and Mozgov established themselves as one of the top Russian junior teams with two JGP medals and a medal at the JGP Final.  They went on to win the Youth Olympic Games but a mistake in their free dance at Junior Worlds left them off the medal stand.  They're starting this season looking for redemption.

Papadakis and Cizeron have continued their climb with their first JGP gold medal in France earlier this season.  They'll need to improve on their performance if they want to earn their second gold of the season, but they should be able to take home a silver medal and earn their first trip to the Final.

Several teams will be fighting for the bronze medal at this event.  Koch and Nuchtern of Germany finished just off the podium in 4th place at both of their events last season and finished 9th at their first Junior Worlds.  Bent and Mackeen of Canada won a bronze medal on the JGP last season but their 4th place finish at Canadian nationals left them off the Junior Worlds team.  Simonova and Dragun of Russia are also in the mix as are Nazarova and Nikitin of Ukraine who won the silver medal at the Youth Olympic Games.

My podium predictions:
Gold: Yanovskaya/Mozgov
Silver: Papadakis/Cizeron
Bronze: Koch/Nuchtern
