GCSE Edexcel English lang grade boundaries

I'm wondering if anyone is able to shed some light on my current situation. I am in year 11 sitting my gcse exams and have the feeling that English language has gone sideways. I did well in both of my mocks (and am predicted an 8), but on the day my words were just not flowing well and I definitely don't the think the paper reflects my true ability. I answered every question but I'm unsure if I used enough reference to the text. This being said, what are the likely hood of lower grade boundaries this year (for Edexcel in particular). I NEED at least a 5 in language, which looks to be around 94 marks give or take, and would like to know anyones else's opinions??
