Mark to show hidden drawback (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fair catch

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

'show hidden drawback' is the wordplay.
'show' becomes 'fair' (fair is a kind of show).
'hidden drawback' becomes 'catch' (I've seen this before).
'fair'+'catch'='FAIR CATCH'

'to' is the link.

(Another definition for fair catch that I've seen is " Mark".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
