Panted (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

gasped

puffed

'panted' is the definition.
('gasp' can be a synonym of 'pant')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for gasped that I've seen before include "Drew breath in sharply as in astonishment" , "Panted; exclaimed" , "Drew in breath sharply, as in surprise" , "Struggled for breath" , "'Panted, puffed (6)'" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, The Telegraph, the Evening Standard and the Penny Press.
