Look at novices with European animal (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gazelle

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

'look at novices with european' is the wordplay.
'look' becomes 'gaze' (gaze is a kind of look).
'at' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'novices' becomes 'LL' (an abbreviation for learner driver written twice).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'european' becomes 'E' (abbreviation e.g. EU).
'gaze'+'ll'+'e'='GAZELLE'

(Other definitions for gazelle that I've seen before include "Graceful kind of antelope" , "Speedy antelope" , "Small graceful antelope" , "''both / beautiful, one a ...'' (Yeats)" , "A amall graceful Antelope" .)
