Pointer for gold seekers in dodgy bar I own (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rainbow

'pointer for gold seekers' is the definition.
(as in a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow)

'dodgy bar i own' is the wordplay.
'dodgy' is an anagram indicator (a dodgy or wrong order of the letters).
'bar'+'i'+'own'='bariown'
'bariown' with letters rearranged gives 'RAINBOW'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for rainbow that I've seen before include "in different colours" , "Arc of colour in the sky" , "Multicoloured atmospheric phenomenon" , "Polychromatic arc" , "Colourful phenomenon" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
