Most competent (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ablest

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">most competent</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('able' can be similar in meaning to 'competent')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for ablest that I've seen before include "Are highly favoured like" , "Most competent in stable" , "Most proficient" , "Most capable" , "Like pupils in top stream" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune.
