What movements come up in Adv Medium that aren't in Medium?

I dont have any Advanced Medium tests, and was just curious as to what was different to Medium. Also having never ridden at Adv Medium i have no idea whats in it!!

As well as the above answers most of the entries are in canter (as is Med 75) and there are 8m circles in trot and canter, rein back to canter and halt to canter.

Can't think of anything else at the moment.

Don't forget that it's not just about movements but also the quality of the work.

Yes, the only new "trick" that is required is a single change, but all the other work must be that much more established. Extended trot must be much more up and off the ground than at Medium and the transitions instant and crisp. Likewise the canter - more engagement bedhind and lift in front.

It's a big mistake to think that Ad Med is just Medium with changes, that's a quick way to coming unstuck.
