Moving rather slowly together with stake (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

andante

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'moving rather slowly together' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'with stake' is the wordplay.
'with' becomes 'and'.
'stake' becomes 'ante' (stake in poker).
'and'+'ante'='ANDANTE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for andante that I've seen before include "Musical instruction" , "tad slow for 9 [FLAUTIST] ?" , "For players, rather slow" , "not quickly" , "Moderately slow (mus.)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
