Meeting fresh demand (9)
I believe the answer is:
newmarket
'meeting' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'fresh demand' is the wordplay.
'fresh' becomes 'new' (synonyms).
'demand' becomes 'market' (market can mean commercial demand).
'new'+'market'='NEWMARKET'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for newmarket that I've seen before include "Betting card came" , "Suffolk town" , "Suffolk racecourse" , "course?" , "Racecourse - card game" .)
