Render impossible (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

preclude

(Other definitions for preclude that I've seen before include "Prevent (something) from happening" , "'Prevent, forestall (8)'" , "Prevent, forestall the possibility of" , "Make impossible" , "Rule out or eliminate" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times and The Times.
