Fit for the task (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">fit for the task</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for able that I've seen before include "- -bodied; - seaman" , "Having the skills and qualifications required" , "Competent, capable" , "Gifted" , "... was I ere I saw Elba (palindrome)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, The New York Times, the L.A. Times Daily, the Universal, the USA Today, the Newsday.com and the Newsday.
