Pull out of the avenue (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

heave

'pull' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'of the avenue' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'HEAVE' can be found hidden inside 'the avenue'.

'out' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for heave that I've seen before include "Haul - retch" , "Express" , "Throw with force - retch" , "Throw, hurl" , "Tug-of-war shout" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times, The Daily Express and The Mirror.
