Enemy dragon destroyed for extra cash (6,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

danger money

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'extra cash' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'enemy dragon destroyed' is the wordplay.
'destroyed' indicates an anagram.
'enemy'+'dragon'='enemydragon'
'enemydragon' anagrammed gives 'DANGER MONEY'.

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for danger money that I've seen before include "Extra pay for risky job" , "Payment for taking risks" , "Extra pay for risk-taker" , "Extra payment on account of risk" , "Extra payment for hazardous working" .)
