Non-placed entrant (4-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

also-ran

(Other definitions for also-ran that I've seen before include "Not placed in the first three of horse race" , "Not among the first three in race" , "Unplaced horse" , "Not placed among the leaders" , "Not placed in first three finishers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
