More or less right to leave time to enter elegantly (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

neatly

'elegantly' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for neatly that I've seen before include "Orderly and cleanly" , "In a tidy way" , "'Tidily, trimly (6)'" , "In a tidy manner" , "nicely" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
