"Hold on a minute there!" (4)

I believe the answer is:

whoa

(Other definitions for whoa that I've seen before include "Stop! - steady on!" , "Command to horse to stop or stand still" , "The King of rock and roll" , "Instruction to a horse to stop" , "Order (horse) to stop" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
