Keeping calm if dragons run wild (9)

I believe the answer is:

sangfroid

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

'keeping calm' is the definition.
The definition suggests an adjective which matches the answer.

'if dragons run wild' is the wordplay.
'run wild' indicates anagramming the letters.
'if'+'dragons'='ifdragons'
'ifdragons' is an anagram of 'SANGFROID'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for sangfroid that I've seen is " Cool".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
