Overly rehearsed (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pat

'overly rehearsed' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pat that I've seen before include "Knob (of butter)" , "Girl" , "Portion of butter" , "Light hand stroke" , "Apt for tender touch" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
