Widened, as nostrils (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flared

(Other definitions for flared that I've seen before include "Blazed with sudden flame - like temper" , "Blazed up - widening out" , "Became suddenly bright or wide" , "(Of nostrils) dilated" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
