Cryptic was like exercise for setter, say? (7)
I believe the answer is:
walkies
'exercise for setter say?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'cryptic was like' is the wordplay.
'cryptic' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'was'+'like'='waslike'
'waslike' anagrammed gives 'WALKIES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for walkies that I've seen before include "Exercise for a dog" , "Dog's exercise" .)
