Found this to be very challenging but now have a full grid except for 2a . I have 'TA?EHO?S?' (2 words) and appears to be 'TAKE HORSE' but cannot relate this at all with the clue. Any hints gratefully received.

I should have added that a word in the clue must be topped or tailed before solving.

Think I now have it chaps. 'Amount' becomes ' Mount' ie get on horse. Still can't see word play though!
