Dreads (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fears

'dreads' is the definition.
('fear' can be a synonym of 'dread')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for fears that I've seen before include "Concerns, dreads" , "Apprehensions" , "Is afraid of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the Newsday, the Universal and the Evening Standard.
