Bust a breather (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

break

This clue is a double definition.

'bust' is the first definition.
(I know that bust is a kind of break)

'a breather' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for break that I've seen before include "Interruption" , "Interrupt; holiday" , "accumulation of points" , "Holiday - destroy" , "Better opportunity" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
