Held in check (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reined

'held in check' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for reined that I've seen before include "Stopped or slowed a horse" , "Pulled in, checked progress" , "Restrained" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
