I saw another clue recently where Spooner was anagram fodder rather than a reference to the Rev.

Bharat, thanks - and glad I could help. I spotted it very quickly as I solved a non-Spoonerism Spooner clue at the weekend. That one also involved an anagram.

Yes, Jono, that was the one. And because I dislike Spooner clues, I am more than happy to escape any of those!

Welcome assistance with this clue:

Person on parade mounted horse in Australia (8)

I found an 8-letter word for an Australian horse (with multiple spellings), but I can't make that fit the rest of the clue.

Yes, it’s an Australian name for a horse.
A 5 letter word reversed (‘mounted’ in a down clue) meaning parade, then a 3 letter word for person.

It’s an anagram, as I’m sure you’ve worked out, of sector + the first letter of logistics around a word for problem. The definition is “it could be good or bad”

If you put the letters you know in here and look through the 11 letter words, you should see it.
