Last one 4ac. S-A-G-R. As it's a horsey theme I can make SNAGGER but I don't know why - except that it contains SNAG ( a problem ) or possibly NAG or even GG! Can anybody help please?

Whats the clue?
If it's a horsey theme, could it be Shergar, Shergar was a champion horse that was kidnapped from Ireland in the 80's and was never found

Thanks Trevor. I'm familiar with quite a few horse names but not their complaints! I did have Shergar for 4 down but didn't know why.

Frog getting odds cut = rg(even letters)
fleece = shear.
btw.it helps if you give the clues.

Compiler Paul -- why does the Grauniad give him Saturday billing? His clues aren't clever, just tortuous.
