A courageous rider to go with a great singer (6)
I believe the answer is:
godiva
'a courageous rider' is the definition.
'godiva' can be an answer for 'rider' (I have seen 'Naked rider' mean 'godiva' so perhaps 'rider' could also mean 'godiva'). I'm unsure of the 'a courageous' bit.
'go with a great singer' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a great singer' becomes 'diva' (term for a female opera singer).
'go'+'diva'='GODIVA'
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for godiva that I've seen before include "Coventry's Lady" , "Coventry equestrienne" , "Peeping Tom looked at her riding through Coventry" , "bareback rider" , "legendary rider" .)
