Cry at start of the hunt (5-2)

I believe the answer is:

tally-ho

(Other definitions for tally-ho that I've seen before include "Hunter's cry" , "Huntsperson's cry" , "Hunt cry" , ""I've seen the fox!"" , "Cry of the huntsman pursuing the fox" .)

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