Was bold (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dared

'was bold' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for dared that I've seen before include "Risked" , "Acted with courage - or dread?" , "was bold enough" , "Goaded" , "Made bold" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate and The Wall Street Journal.
