Horse lost blood? Fixed up! (7)
I believe the answer is:
cobbled
'fixed up' is the definition.
'cobbled' can be an answer for 'fixed' (cobbling is a kind of fixing). I am not certain of the 'up' bit.
'horse lost blood?' is the wordplay.
'horse' becomes 'cob' (type of horse).
'lost blood?' becomes 'bled' ('bleed' can be a synonym of 'lose blood').
'cob'+'bled'='COBBLED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for cobbled that I've seen is " worked on last?".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
