I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'this kind of hunter' is the definition.
'courser' can be an answer for 'hunter' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'this kind of' bit.

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for courser that I've seen before include "Runner" , "One hunting with dogs" , "Hunter of hares - speedy horse or bird" , "Swift horse" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
