Answer: AIR “HORSE“ ONE
(Sniff, sniff, sniff! E-eww, yeah! That is one stinky pun! Much worse than horse manure. I wouldn’t be surprised though if this threw . . . a few . . . of you. Hey! Guess what? Until today, the Jumble has NEVER before used the word “heaven” as a clue word! It’s true. Unless it was somehow omitted from the more recent ralis95 clue word databases. We’ve seen “byred” before as a jumble, but the other three seem to be new jumbles. The answer letter layout was a thing of beauty. I don’t think it gave anything away. Fun cartoon of Teddy Roosevelt reliving his Rough Rider days! Great Jumble. It gave us a little of everything. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
