A raid organised by Robin (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adair

'robin' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'a raid organised by' is the wordplay.
'organised' indicates anagramming the letters.
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'raid' with letters rearranged gives 'dair'.
'a'+'dair'='ADAIR'

(Another definition for adair that I've seen is " Robin - - (old song)".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
