Eluded (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

escaped

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">eluded</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('escape' can be a synonym of 'elude')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for escaped that I've seen before include "gone!" , "Broke free, got away" , "Fled from captivity" , "Got away, broke loose" , "Ran away from confinement" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and the Evening Standard.
