Shrewd, sharp (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

astute

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">This clue is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">shrewd</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that shrewd can be written as astute)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">sharp</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that sharp can be written as astute)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for astute that I've seen before include "Wise" , "Canny and sagacious" , "Sharp-witted" , "Shrewd, canny" , "Sharp and clever" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
