Overcoat is new result (6)
I believe the answer is:
ulster
'overcoat' is the definition.
(I know that Ulster is a type of overcoat)
'new result' is the wordplay.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'result' is an anagram of 'ULSTER'.
'is' is the link.
(Other definitions for ulster that I've seen before include "Man's overcoat" , "Historic Irish province; heavy overcoat" , "Northern Ireland (loosely)" , "Six, or nine, counties" , "Cloak for an Irish province" .)
