Sofija BASINA (LAT) is wearing a dress that is mostly black, but the bust part and the skirt part are pink. And a head band. I really like the look.

Not familiar with the music, but it was dramatic! I loved it!

She goes into the lead.

Urte. Pretty dress. Good program. A lot of doubles, but a good 3S. Nice skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Urte GAILIUTE (LTU) is wearing a deep red dress.

Skating to "Poison" by Freya Ridings. And despite the subject matter, it worked really well.

I enjoyed that programme.

Taking a long time for the scores to come through. Urte took the opportunity to fix her hair!

She goes into 2nd position overall.

Agne IVANOVAITE (LTU) wearing a black dress with silver pattern.

Skating to "Remember" by Josh Groban. It could do without the female vocals. Say "no" to wailing!

Not Agne's best skate. A lot of mistakes, including a fall right in the corner.

She's capable of better than this.

But, she is smiling anyway. And Urte GAILIUTE (LTU) who skated right before her has returned (with her teddy bear). And they are chatting away.

I take it they are team-mates.

She goes into the lead overall.

Ginevra. Gorgeous dress. Pretty program and skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Ginevra BACCHIONI (ITA) wearing a dress in varous shades of blue.

Skating to "Help The People" by Birdy. This song is in danger of becoming a warhorse.

Definitely the best we have seen so far. And by some margin!

Oh, it's times like this that I wish the livescoring was working. To find out how much she will lead by.

She does go into the lead overall.

Maisa. Elegant black dress. Good program and skate. Really good spins.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Maisa UUTELA (FIN) wearing a beautiful black dress with silver pattern.

I was enjoying the music at the start, but then it turned into a weird cover of "Sweet Dreams". And then into a re-mix of the Eurythmics' original.

Skating was good, though.

Seeing her sitting waiting for her scores, she reminds me of somebody. Her face definitely looks familiar. But I can't think who.

She goes into the lead of both the FS and overall.

Miriama. Pretty blue dress. Good program. Shame about the falls, but she never gave up. Great cartwheel.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Miriama SOSINA (LAT) wearing a dress that is the shade in between royal blue and sky blue.

I knew I recognised the voice in the first song! It's Amel Bent, singing "Ma Philosophie". Didn't appreciate the cover of "Eye Of The Tiger" afterwards, though.



She was really going for it. Too much so. It led to three falls.

Raimo Reinsalu sitting with her.

She goes into 2nd position in the FS, and the lead overall.

Right, we're on the home run now. Final group of Junior girls on the ice for their Warm-Up.

And the livescoring is now working!!!

Taisia. Beautiful dress and program. Decent skate and good spins.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Taisia KRIVOSHEYA (LAT) wearing a dress that is mainly silver, but the skirt part is cream.

Skating to beautiful instrumental music that is very familiar.

There was the odd mistake but, on the whole, that was good.

She goes into 5th position in the FS, and 3rd position overall.

Kira. Pretty dress and a pretty program. Really good skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Kira BARANOVSKA (LAT) is wearing a white dres with grey pattern.

Dialogue, and then wailing. No thank you.

The irony is, the skating was really good.

She goes into a monster lead in both the FS and overall!

By 32 points in the FS alone!

Milana. Gorgeous dress. Great program. Good 3T3T. Nice skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Milana SINIAVSKYTE (LTU) wearing a fress that is mainly dark grey, but with pink skirt and shoulders.

Doing a "Romeo And Juliette" programme. With a couple of bits of dialogue.

I'm never sure about "Romeo And Juliette" programmes in Singles Skating. Like, how do you portray a love story on your own?

But, she skated it well.

She goes into 2nd position in both the FS and overall.

WIth the way the gaps were after the SP, it's going to be hard for anybody to catch Kira BARANOVSKA (LAT).

Alice. Beautiful dress and program. Great 2A sequence. Really good skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Alice SMITH (GBR) wearing a dark grey and black dress with Harry Hill style white collar.

Very industrial music. It was like she was in a Lancashire mill.

That was good.

She doesn't sit down at all in the results area. Stays standing the whole time.

She goes into the lead of both the FS and overall.

So much for my theory about Baranovska!
