In a daze, butting some Indian ox (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

zebu

'indian ox' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'in a daze butting some' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ZEBU' is hidden in the letters of 'daze butting some'.

(Other definitions for zebu that I've seen before include "cattle" , "ox penned" , "Type of ox" , "Bovine animal" , "Asian ox" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
