Horsewoman always accepts direction given by conservationists (7)
I believe the answer is:
eventer
'horsewoman' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'always accepts direction given by conservationists' is the wordplay.
'always' becomes 'ever' (synonyms).
'accepts' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'direction' becomes 'e' (E is an example).
'given by' says to put letters next to each other.
'conservationists' becomes 'NT' (National Trust).
'e'+'nt'='ent'
'ever' enclosing 'ent' is 'EVENTER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eventer that I've seen before include "Rider in contests" , "Competitive rider" , "Sportsman" , "Showjumper" , "versatile horse" .)
