Pound found in bathrobe (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

throb

'pound' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'in bathrobe' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'THROB' is hidden in the letters of 'bathrobe'.

'found' is the link.

(Other definitions for throb that I've seen before include "Beat rhythmically" , "Pound" , "Palpitate, quiver (with emotion)" , "beat repeatedly" , "Pulsate with force" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Sun.
