Crossword Genius

A throne prepared for someone else (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

another

'someone else' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a throne prepared' is the wordplay.
'prepared' indicates anagramming the letters.
'throne' anagrammed gives 'nother'.
'a'+'nother'='ANOTHER'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for another that I've seen before include "encore?" , "Player or person not yet named or selected" , "second" , "Somebody else" , "Additional, one more" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
