Nobleman found a carrot, it's misshapen (10)
I believe the answer is:
aristocrat
'nobleman' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'a carrot it's misshapen' is the wordplay.
'misshapen' indicates anagramming the letters.
'carrot'+'its'='carrotits'
'carrotits' anagrammed gives 'ristocrat'.
'a'+'ristocrat'='ARISTOCRAT'
'found' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for aristocrat that I've seen before include "Nob" , "Member of the nobility" , "Member of the upper class" , "What's listed in Debrett" , "Noble" .)
