Raider for ever right (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

forayer

'raider' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'for ever right' is the wordplay.
'ever' becomes 'aye' (archaic word for 'always' or 'ever').
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'for'+'aye'+'r'='FORAYER'

(Other definitions for forayer that I've seen before include "Raider" , "One on the attack" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
