Prize puzzle from the Weekend FT of March 21
It took me a while to complete the top right corner of this puzzle, not being familiar with ABBACY and finding 9A, 12A and 6D challenging — in the case of 9A because the obvious answer seemed too easy.

Other than having to confirm a couple of answers post-solving (5A and 21D) this was not particularly mind-warping in nature. If anything, this puzzle struck me as having all most as much corn as the Jolly Green Giant in the bottom half (e.g. 22A, 28A, 16D, 17D, 23D).

Quite an easy crossword today, but with a few disappointing clues, I thought (e.g. 13, 14, 6, 7) … There are a few things I didn’t understand, but I’m sure people will be able to clear them up quickly
