Plantagenet inside released war dogs (6)
I believe the answer is:
edward
'plantagenet' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'inside released war dogs' is the wordplay.
'inside' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'EDWARD' is hidden within 'released war dogs'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for edward that I've seen before include "Boy's name" , "The eighth one abdicated" , "Name Lambert Simnel took when crowned" , "The Queen's youngest son" , "-- Lear; -- Heath" .)
