Pounce (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

swoop

'pounce' is the definition.
(I know that pounce can be written as swoop)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for swoop that I've seen before include "Rush suddenly" , "Move rapidly down" , "Police raid" , "Pounce suddenly" , "Descend suddenly (on)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Mirror.
