Pursuer making the run (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hunter

'pursuer' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'making the run' is the wordplay.
'making' is an anagram indicator.
'the'+'run'='therun'
'therun' anagrammed gives 'HUNTER'.

(Other definitions for hunter that I've seen before include "Watch with hinged cover" , "Pursuer of game" , "Type of fob watch" , "woodsman" , "See 10" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
