Cheers horse -- mine, of sorts? (3,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tap into

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'mine of sorts?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'cheers horse' is the wordplay.
'cheers' becomes 'ta' (both can informally mean thank you).
'horse' becomes 'pinto' (pinto is a kind of horse).
'ta'+'pinto'='TAP INTO'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tap into that I've seen before include "Secretly gain access to" , "gain illegal access" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
