____ and ends (4)

I believe the answer is:

odds

(Other definitions for odds that I've seen before include "Chances expressed as a ratio" , "Starting price" , "Ratios set by bookies" , "at this is in dispute" , "Chances, probability" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the USA Today, The Star Tribune, the LA Times and the Canadiana.
