Reduce high speed (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

clip

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'reduce' is the first definition.
(I know that clip is a more specific form of the action shorten)

'high speed' is the second definition.
(clip can mean a rapid rate of movement)

(Other definitions for clip that I've seen before include "Magazine" , "Cut short; cartridge holder" , "Short film extract; fasten" , "Cut - piece of film" , "Film extract; light blow" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
