Overtook (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

passed

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

(Other definitions for passed that I've seen before include "overtaking?" , "Spades (anag)" , "'Brought into effect, laws perhaps (6)'" , "Chose not to bid" , "Handed on; went by" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Mirror, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Sun.
