Equitable, but only just (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

right

I believe this clue is a triple definition!

'equitable' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'but' is a link.

'only' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'just' is the third definition.
(similar in meaning)

(Other definitions for right that I've seen before include "Correct; proper" , "A person is entitled to it" , "Authority - one hand" , "One has a claim to be correct" , "Fair or just" .)
