I believe the answer is:
heiress
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">female inheritor</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for heiress that I've seen before include "He rises (anag.)" , "one who's succeeded" , "Inheritrix" , "Woman with good prospects" , "Woman likely to succeed?" .)
