Move giving assist ultimately to scorer (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

travel

'move' is the definition.
(to travel is to move)

'giving assist ultimately to scorer' is the wordplay.
'giving' says to put letters next to each other.
'ultimately' suggests the final letters.
'to scorer' becomes 'ravel' (Maurice Ravel).
The last letter of 'assist' is 't'.
't'+'ravel' is 'TRAVEL'.

(Other definitions for travel that I've seen before include "Voyage" , "It is said to broaden the mind" , "Make a journey" , "Go on a journey" , "Go from place to place" .)

I've seen this clue in the Independent.
