Panted (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

gasped

puffed

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">panted</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('puff' can be a synonym of 'pant')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for puffed that I've seen before include "Breathed hard from exertion, panted" , "Out of breath" , "Panted, being breathless" , "Wheezed, being swollen" , "Blew in short gusts" .)

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