Throw a Parisian laid by rocky shore (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unhorse

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

'throw' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'a parisian laid by rocky shore' is the wordplay.
'a parisian' becomes 'un'.
'laid by rocky shore' becomes 'horse' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'un'+'horse'='UNHORSE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for unhorse that I've seen before include "Overthrow" , "Unship rider" , "Throw" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
