Jockey awarded in time after Victoria (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edwardian

'time after victoria' is the definition.
(the Edwardian era followed the Victorian era)

'jockey awarded in' is the wordplay.
'jockey' indicates anagramming the letters (the letters scramble or jockey around).
'awarded'+'in'='awardedin'
'awardedin' with letters rearranged gives 'EDWARDIAN'.

(Other definitions for edwardian that I've seen before include "Early 20th-century" , "From the years 1901 to 1910?" , "The age before WW1" , "Of the fashion mocked by Teddy boys" , "from early twentieth century" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
