Bright star in the constellation Aquila (6)

I believe the answer is:

altair

(Other definitions for altair that I've seen before include "Heavenly body" , "Lariat (anag) - star in Aquila" , "A trial (anag) - star" , "Bright star in Aquila" , "Bright star; lariat (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
