Have a go and weigh it! Rival uncertain (4,2,1,5)
I believe the answer is:
give it a whirl
'have a go' is the definition.
(both can mean to try something)
'weigh it rival uncertain' is the wordplay.
'uncertain' indicates an anagram.
'weigh'+'it'+'rival'='weighitrival'
'weighitrival' with letters rearranged gives 'GIVE IT A WHIRL'.
'and' is the link.
(Another definition for give it a whirl that I've seen is " Try something".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
