Race he'd lead, somehow, being sensible (11)
I believe the answer is:
clearheaded
'sensible' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'race he'd lead somehow' is the wordplay.
'somehow' indicates anagramming the letters.
'race'+'hed'+'lead'='racehedlead'
'racehedlead' anagrammed gives 'CLEARHEADED'.
'being' is the link.
I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
