Daisy enters city from the West (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

easterly

'the west' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'daisy enters city' is the wordplay.
'daisy' becomes 'aster' (I've seen this before).
'enters' indicates putting letters inside.
'city' becomes 'ely' (I've seen this before).
'aster' placed inside 'ely' is 'EASTERLY'.

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for easterly that I've seen before include "large blow" , "The sort of wind that brings cold air to this country" , "Wind to westward" , "bitter blow for the UK" , "A wind blowing towards the west" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
