Really want those nearest to move ahead (3,4,5,2)
I believe the answer is:
set ones heart on
'really want' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'those nearest to move ahead' is the wordplay.
'to move' is an anagram indicator.
'ahead' becomes 'on' (synonyms).
'those'+'nearest'='thosenearest'
'thosenearest' with letters rearranged gives 'setonesheart'.
'setonesheart'+'on'='SET ONES HEART ON'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
