Cowboy's riding distance? (5)
I believe the answer is:
range
This clue could be a double definition.
'cowboy's riding' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.
'distance?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for range that I've seen before include "on which 'Dr Brewster Higley' felt at home?" , "Andes or Rockies, perhaps?" , "Selection" , "Wander freely" , "spread?" .)
