Horses from centre of Olympus with Greek god (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mares

'horses' is the definition.
(female horses)

'centre of olympus with greek god' is the wordplay.
'centre of' indicates the central letters.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'greek god' becomes 'Ares' (Ares is an example).
The central letter of 'olympus' is 'm'.
'm'+'ares'='MARES'

'from' is the link.

(Another definition for mares that I've seen is " Female horses".)
