Dance a bit more elegantly (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reel

'dance' is the definition.
(I know that reel is a type of longways dance)

'a bit more elegantly' is the wordplay.
'a bit' says the answer is hidden in the clue (the answer is formed by a bit of the clue).
'REEL' is hidden within 'more elegantly'.

(Other definitions for reel that I've seen before include "Show astonishment" , "Revolving spool" , "Part of a film; stagger" , "Drum - dance - music" , "Cylinder on which something is wound" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
