Contestant not considered likely to win (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

outsider

(Other definitions for outsider that I've seen before include "Foreigner" , "Contestant who hasn't much of a chance" , "Not one of the in-crowd" , "1000/1 shot" , "One not fancied to win" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
