So true LOL.. my daughter got two 8's for the walk and she was over the moon as she's never had an 8 before LOL
 
Ah. I was wondering why they are using this test for a Highland Pony Show.

Rosie has a great forward going marching walk. The canter parts will be pretty non existant as we have no balance going round corners and circles.
 
Progressive transition in this case (free walk to medium walk) means gradual (probably over 2-3 strides) rather than sudden! i.e. slowly gather up the reins and ask him to come back into a contact whilst still keeping the same walk rhythm.
HTH.
