20A - I've got 'better' and think that makes more sense. A better lays bets and if you top something you better it.

I reckon 20a is better, laying odds and that kind of stuff. I get sharp set for the ohter on, but it seems a bit uncomfortable.
Any thoughts on 21d? Second in importance (6) _o_e_t

Thanks puzzlers.

Agree "better" fits better than my suggestion.

Everybody appears to agree the answer to the damn down clue is Sharp-set.

Instruments is harps, yes, but set?
