Any letters for 1 and 8?
1a MASCAGNI [=composer]
curtailed excessive desire = MANI(a)
to straddle = put ^ outside of...
horse = SCAG [another term for heroin]

8a RETROGRESSION - anagram of 'rot' = ROT, inside REGRESSION
(should be... TRO inside REGRESSION )
double sorry, no ION at the end

8d) RETROGRESS
