Sheep gets in more trouble (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

merino

'sheep' is the definition.
(I know that Merino is a type of sheep)

'in more trouble' is the wordplay.
'trouble' indicates anagramming the letters.
'in'+'more'='inmore'
'inmore' is an anagram of 'MERINO'.

'gets' is the link.

(Other definitions for merino that I've seen before include "Breed of sheep with fine wool" , "Type of sheep" , "Sheep from Spain with a heavy quality fleece" , "Sheep bred for its long, fine wool" , "Fine-woolled sheep" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
