Achieve with effort (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

attain

'achieve with effort' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for attain that I've seen before include "Succeed in doing, get there" , "Succeed in getting or doing" , "Manage to get" , "Reach, get there as with ambition" , "Reach or gain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
