Where a wooden horse shot out of the ring? (4)
I believe the answer is:
troy
'where a wooden horse' is the definition.
The answer is a location as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.
'shot out of the ring?' is the wordplay.
'shot' becomes 'try' (I've seen this in other clues**).
'out of' is an insertion indicator.
'the ring?' becomes 'o'.
'try' going around 'o' is 'TROY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for troy that I've seen before include "Helen of --, beauty" , "City of Paris" , "Hardy sergeant" , "City besieged by Greeks to rescue Helen" , "Ancient beseiged city" .)
