Here are mine AND IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER:

MEN: Preaubert, Oda, Lysacek

LADIES: Mao, Miki, Kimmie

PAIRS: Langois & Hay, Pang & Tong, Inoue & Baldwin

DANCE: Denkova & Stavisky, Gregory & Petukhov, Rubleva & Shefer

This was not easy not having seen most of these skaters this year. It was pure guessing from my head - not necessarily from my heart.

I agree with all of Jaana's picks except in pairs. I'll replace M & T with Marcoux & Buntin of Canada.

Sorry, Joe, Rubleva/Shefer are out. They've been replaced by Hann-McCurdy/Coreno of Canada.

In that case, the Kerrs.

This is going to be a barn-burner. I can't guess. For ladies it could be Mao, Kimmie and Emily.

Or it could be Katy, Miki and Mai.

My prediction: Sarah Meier, Kiira Korpi and Mira Leung.

Changing the pairs podium prediction because of a roster change: Instead of Mukhortova & Trankov on the podium will be Zagorska & Siudek.

Have Mukhortova and Trankov withdrawn? They are still listed on the ISU site (so are Pang and Tong at the moment). I wonder if anyone will replace them?

I agree that Zagorska/Siudek will be on the podium, now that Pang/Tong have withdrawn. I think for silver.

You were so right to warn everyone, Hockeyfan, that there would be changes in the lineups for the GPs.

I'm a little shocked that only a few posters have hyped Sarah Meier. The women's field is STRONG. Very potentially, anyone except Marchei and Cantu, could make the podium. Meier's got the highest World's finish (except for Meissner, of course). I just hope we see a lot of clean programs (and maybe a 3A or two). So...

Meier, Mao, Kimmie

Oda, Lysacek, Preaubert
