Where Ray went wrong (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ayr

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

'where ray went wrong' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'where ray' is the wordplay.
'where' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'ray' anagrammed gives 'AYR'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ayr that I've seen before include "Scottish town, port and racecourse" , "Scots. town; sounds like song" , "Scottish seaport" , "Scots port on Firth of Clyde" , "Scottish city" .)
