Raids, said Ron, run wild (7)
I believe the answer is:
inroads
'raids' is the definition.
(inroad can mean a raid or attack)
'said ron run wild' is the wordplay.
'run wild' indicates anagramming the letters.
'said'+'ron'='saidron'
'saidron' anagrammed gives 'INROADS'.
(Other definitions for inroads that I've seen before include "(Make) raids, intrusions (into)" , "raid" , "Progress" , "advances" , "Hostile attacks" .)
