Interceptors worked on reflection (2,10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

in retrospect

'on reflection' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'interceptors worked' is the wordplay.
'worked' indicates an anagram.
'interceptors' is an anagram of 'IN RETROSPECT'.

(Other definitions for in retrospect that I've seen before include "Looking back" , "On reflection" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
