I can't earn redress as race was won easily (2,1,6)
I believe the answer is:
in a canter
'i' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'can't earn redress as race was won easily' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'can't' could be 'cant' and 'cant' is found within the answer.
an anagram of 'earn' is 'naer' which is present in the remaining letters.
A single letter 'i' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
