Liking, predilection (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

penchant

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'liking' is the first definition.
(I know that penchant is a type of liking)

'predilection' is the second definition.
(I know that predilection can be written as penchant)

(Other definitions for penchant that I've seen before include "Partiality" , "Inclination, bent" , "Disposition" , "Inclination; taste" , "Leaning towards or liking for" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
