At stable, monk removes coat requesting one to hold horses? (6,2)
I believe the answer is:
steady on
'monk removes coat requesting one to hold horses?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'at stable' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'at' could be 'on' (location) and 'on' is present in the answer.
'stable' could be 'steady' (similar in meaning) and 'steady' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for steady on that I've seen before include "Take it easy" , "That's a bit much!" , "Be reasonable" , "Don't be so hasty" , "Be careful" .)
