rearing (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

rampant

raising

'rearing' is the definition.
(I know that rearing can be written as rampant)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rampant that I've seen before include "Flourishing excessively as disease may be" , "Spreading unchecked" , "Growing or spreading uncontrollably" , "Mantrap (anag) - unrestrained" , "Unchecked - standing up on hind legs" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
