Blackguard’s jumper (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bounder

This clue is a double definition.

'blackguard's' is the first definition.
(both can mean a dishonourable person)

'jumper' is the second definition.
(someone who bounds or leaps)

(Other definitions for bounder that I've seen before include "Untrustworthy type (once)" , "A hop-along cad?" , "despicable man" , "The skipper" , "Dishonourable man (dated colloq.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
