Interest in post (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stake

I believe this is a double definition.

'interest' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'post' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for stake that I've seen before include "Financial interest" , "Ante, bet" , "Money gambled" , "Post; money for bet" , "Deposit as a wager" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Times.
