A duke opposing worker - old and privileged (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

advantaged

'privileged' is the definition.
('advantaged' can be similar in meaning to 'privileged')

'a duke opposing worker old' is the wordplay.
'duke' becomes 'd'.
'opposing' becomes 'v' (abbreviation for versus).
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
'old' becomes 'aged' ('aged' can be similar in meaning to 'old'**).
'a'+'d'+'v'+'ant'+'aged'='ADVANTAGED'

'and' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
