Thanks for the help, both! Appreciated!

Could stag missing first be (r)evel?

[Mamyalynne]

It could if 'stag party'

I thought 'Stage' maybe - (L)evel but then that leaves 'page' unparsed.

Sorry folks’ I mis-copied the clue due to predictive text! Apologies! It ought to have read: 8d Mess up course, skipping first stage (8) D?S?E?E? . I can almost see DISHEVEL(mess up) with DISH (course) but whet about EVEL?

[cashier]

Stage = level minus l

[Mamyalynne]

Stage - Level minus L

[Mamyalynne]

I did parse (L)evel above Dan :-)
