Crossword Genius

Guess shape (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

figure

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'guess' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'shape' is the second definition.
(figure is a kind of shape)

(Other definitions for figure that I've seen before include "Body shape" , "The written symbol of a number" , "Come to understand - shape" , "Consider" , "Judge to be probable, estimate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
