One of the strains of the chase! (7,4)
I believe the answer is:
hunting song
'one of the strains of' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'chase' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'chase' could be 'hunting' (I have seen 'The chase' mean 'hunting' so perhaps 'chase' could also mean 'hunting') and 'hunting' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'song' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'the' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
