Feed for fillies (4)

I believe the answer is:

oats

(Other definitions for oats that I've seen before include "Cereal for porridge" , "Young folk might sow wild ones" , "Food crop" , "Food for horses and Scots (said Dr Johnson)" , "Cereal plants" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
