Ah! A crossword specialist. Spot on. And for those who are still puzzled, R represents a non-gender specific monarch (rex or regina).

Your turn.

We might hear patrons of illegal cruel sport remarking that the supposedly favoured contender is, however, a novice (whereby notionally less well-regarded rival, could quite possibly prevail).

Acocks Green (time to visit the clinic).
(My italics) -- egad, sir, that bit comes later -- consequence of celebration after the "main" in the (feathered-friends-related) noble sport ... you have it rightly -- the "A cock" is supposedly hot stuff, but a newbie ("green"); his less showy and less-favoured opponent has more experience, and might well win after all.

I declare, 'tis your turn to throw your three-cornered hat into the ring ...
