More certain or more confident (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

surer

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'more certain' is the first definition.
('sure' can be a synonym of 'certain')

'more confident' is the second definition.
('sure' can be similar in meaning to 'confident')

'or' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for surer that I've seen before include "more right?" , "faster" , "More certain and positive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
