Part of a horse's back (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

withers

'part of a horse's back' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for withers that I've seen before include "Bit of a nag" , "Languishes; part of horse near shoulder-blades" , "Ridge at the base of a horse'd neck, from which its height is measured" , "Writhes on ridge between a horse's shoulder-blades" , "Part between a horse's shoulder blades" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
