Pierce with a horn; blood (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gore

This clue is a double definition.

'pierce with a horn' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'blood' is the second definition.
(gore means blood or violence)

(Other definitions for gore that I've seen before include "Spilt blood" , "Blood on a piece let into a garment?" , "Pierce or wound with a horn or tusk" , "Clotted blood" , "Blood; stab with tusk" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
