Copy, try to be like (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emulate

I believe this is a double definition.

'copy' is the first definition.
(I know that emulate is a kind of copy)

'try to be like' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for emulate that I've seen before include "Imitate, try to equal" , "Follow in the footsteps of" , "ambitious veteran" , "Try to equal by imitation" , "Match by imitation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
