Closed trailers bring hoppers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toads

'hoppers' is the definition.
(animals which hop)

'closed trailers' is the wordplay.
'closed' becomes 'to' (as in a door closed to).
'trailers' becomes 'ads' (a trailer is a kind of ad or advert).
'to'+'ads'='TOADS'

'bring' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for toads that I've seen before include "Froglike amphibians" , "Frog-like land animals" , "Loathsome types" , "Tailless amphibians" , "Leaping amphibians" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
