Horse-catching rope (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lasso

(Other definitions for lasso that I've seen before include "something to catch beast liable to run off" , "Long rope with running noose" , "Cow-catching rope?" , "Rope used for catching cattle" , "Cattle-catching rope" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
