Drug all jockeys catching a new type of fever (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

glandular

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'type of fever' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'drug all jockeys catching a' is the wordplay.
'jockeys' is an anagram indicator.
'catching' indicates putting letters inside.
'a' becomes 'an'.
'drug'+'all'='drugall'
'drugall' with letters rearranged gives 'gldular'.
'gldular' enclosing 'an' is 'GLANDULAR'.

'new' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. It may be part of another bit of the clue.
