10 is ABOO right in 10a?
13a) editorship = anagram of 'steroid', followed by 'hip'
9a Dead Ringer ?
Question Author
NO boxtops it is my mistake and many thanks for pointing it out oops!
should read "ABOUT" not ABOO?
10a) EQUINES

european = E
fruit about to be exported = remove the C from QUINCES = QUINES

and Arabs refers to horses
if only 6 then ignore the S at the end

Many thanks to all.

Have you missed a bit out of the clue for 9a? Perhaps 'too'? Answer could be root ginger. Ringer surrounding g-too reversed.

Hi TOMM33,
I am having a mare today,the clue should read"9 Across, Spice girl's debut also held back by lookalike (4,6)

Many Thanks.
Then root ginger seems OK. G (first letter of girl) too = also gives gtoo. Reverse (back) it and put it inside ringer = lookalike.
