Goes off for the booty (6)
I believe the answer is:
spoils
This might be a double definition.
'goes' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'for the booty' is the second definition.
(both can mean the proceeds or prize from something)
'off' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spoils that I've seen before include "Plunder, takings from war" , "Ill-gotten gains" , "Plunder, benefits to victor" , "Acquisitions" , "Cossets, fails to instil discipline into" .)
