Discriminating fact (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

particular

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'discriminating' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'fact' is the second definition.
(I know that particular is a type of fact)

(Other definitions for particular that I've seen before include "Meticulous" , "Special" , "Specific" , "going into detail" , "Respect" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
