Just if /when Gracie will come to the same kind of confidence as Ashley has now, she can do a lot. Akiko, depends on how ready she is at the early stage of the season. So far Julia looks the most stable and improved in my eyes. And I have a feeling that Hicks will do well.Well the line up got a heck of a lot weaker. i think Suzuki or Gold will win Gold but look out for Hicks to nab a medal too. Lipnitskaia might play the spoiler. Osmond won't be much of anissue with her injuries. Gao will feel the pressure knowing she is on the bubble to make he American team.
Akiko or Julia for the win. Gracie if either falters and Gracie is clean in the short.
If Gracie has a clean SP she will finish top 2 and maybe even win. If not, she will still probably medal. She's a better spinner than Suzuki and Hicks.
