Stretch tight (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strain

(Other definitions for strain that I've seen before include "Tension - tune" , "Race" , "Distinct breed (of animal); overexert" , "Family - tension" , "Injure (a muscle); distinct breed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Mirror.
