Broadcast the race (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

relay

I believe this is a double definition.

'broadcast' is the first definition.
(relay can mean to broadcast or pass on)

'race' is the second definition.
(relay race)

'the' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for relay that I've seen before include "track event" , "Hand, pass on" , "Pass on - put down again" , "article in bank" , "Receive and pass on - race" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
