Crossword Genius

Champion assembled little horde (5-6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

title-holder

'champion' is the definition.
('title-holder' can be a synonym of 'champion')

'assembled little horde' is the subsidiary indication.
'assembled' is an anagram indicator.
'little'+'horde'='littlehorde'
'littlehorde' anagrammed gives 'titleholder'.
