Lost blood (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bled

'lost blood' is the definition.
('bleed' can be a synonym of 'lose blood')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for bled that I've seen before include "Haemorrhaged" , "Showed effects of injury" , "Lost blood" , "Extracted blood as treatment" , "Seeped (into an adjoining colour)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
