The ___ , (horse racing) (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

turf

'the horse racing' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for turf that I've seen before include "Surface of matted grass - horse racing" , "Piece of lawn" , "Slab for lawn" , "Horseracing as an industry" , "Bit of grass with roots and earth" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
