Guide cattle … (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

steer

This clue is a double definition.

'guide' is the first definition.
(I know that guide can be written as steer)

'cattle' is the second definition.
(steer is a kind of cattle)

(Other definitions for steer that I've seen before include "Direct; bullock" , "Exercise control" , "Guide, direct" , "Cattle - guide" , "Guide the bull" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
