Turned up, right, pursued and acquired (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

purchased

'acquired' is the definition.
(purchasing is a kind of acquiring)

'turned up right pursued' is the wordplay.
'turned' says the letters should be written backwards.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'pursued' becomes 'chased' (synonyms).
'up' in reverse letter order is 'pu'.
'pu'+'r'+'chased'='PURCHASED'

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for purchased that I've seen before include "paid for" , "Bought" , "Got hold of" , "picked up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
