Wagers; posts (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stakes

This clue is a double definition.

'wagers' is the first definition.
('stake' can be a synonym of 'wager')

'posts' is the second definition.
('stake' can be a synonym of 'post')

(Other definitions for stakes that I've seen before include "Amounts bet; posts" , "Pointed sticks or shares in enterprise" , "Wagers with pointed poles" , "Monies risked on gambles" , "pickets" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
