Reverse tracks (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tails

This clue is a double definition.

'reverse' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'tracks' is the second definition.
('tail' can be a synonym of 'track')

(Other definitions for tails that I've seen before include "Full evening dress for men" , "Coin-tossing call" , "the back of bears - bulls too" , "Animals' extremities" , "as opposed to heads" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
