Fathers, begets (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sires

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fathers' is the first definition.
('sire' can be a synonym of 'father')

'begets' is the second definition.
('sire' can be a synonym of 'beget')

(Other definitions for sires that I've seen before include "Begets" , "Fathers" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
