Spinner's pride broken by first of sixes (6)
I believe the answer is:
spider
'spinner's' is the definition.
(a spider spins webs)
'pride broken by first of sixes' is the wordplay.
'broken' indicates an anagram.
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'first of' indicates taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'sixes' is 's'.
'pride' anagrammed gives 'pider'.
'pider' put after 's' is 'SPIDER'.
(Other definitions for spider that I've seen before include "Cue rest; arachnid" , "Creepy-crawly" , "Webster" , "Bruce's inspiration?" , "Arthropod; snooker rest" .)
