Free rein (5,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

carte blanche

'free rein' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for carte blanche that I've seen before include "Free hand" , "Complete discretion" , "Complete freedom to act as one wishes" , "Unrestricted authority" , "Complete freedom of action" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Guardian and the Family Time.
