Batch among several others (3)
I believe the answer is:
lot
'batch' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'among several others' is the wordplay.
'among' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'LOT' is hidden within 'several others'.
(Other definitions for lot that I've seen before include "Abraham's nephew - assigned share" , "Fate - plenty" , "one whose wife should be remembered" , "Much at auction" , "Large amount; Abraham's nephew" .)
