Why broke stablehand worked? (8,3,4)
I believe the answer is:
strapped for cash
'why broke' is the definition.
'strapped for cash' can be an answer for 'broke' (I've seen this in another clue). I am unsure of the 'why' bit.
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for strapped for cash that I've seen before include "not rolling in it" , "Bust" , "as an S & M prostitute?" , "needing money" , "Hard up" .)
