I thought it might have Rhino (nose) in it but can't bring anything to mind ending with A

You're on the wrong track with razz Aristo, I have been somewhat "creative" but hopefully not unfair in part with this one.

Sounds good aristo, Rostrated means being BEAKED and rostral is 'of the nose or mouth'
Can't see the word play yet???

Correct Aristo...

6.“Roman noses [take] [larger than normal] [tra]jectories”, jeer stoic school dismissively(6)

take=R
larger than normal=OS

The tenuous bit...jeerstoic with school as anagrind dismissed from trajectories

Evil- but then we wouldn't like you if you weren't. You've used all that time off "badly", ixion. Thanks for the challenge!

blimey ixion, that was a stickler, I tried finding an anagram for jeerstoic because it had the R in it, well done
What's (Take = R) am I missing something
