Hello. I found this pretty tough with a couple of answers that I’m not 100% sure about and one that has me baffled
First, not sure ones
56ac Web crawler that predicts where the wealth is going . With the letters I have the answer has got to be “ money spider” and the web is obvious and money and wealth go together . But why predict?
46 d Mailer accepting Pound is rather fine. The answer must be spender. But why “ fine”?
And the baffling one.
9d . Sandwich spread? I have e?p?r? Expert? Export? Dunno!

Please advise

Sandwich was one of the Cinque ports so ex port and to export means to spread around.

56 myth has it that if a money spider walks on your hand you will come into some money. Best I could come up with there Steven.

Sorry. That reaction was for slender. I’ m grateful for the other one too and I see the ex port part but “ spread about”? Ok I’ll accept your word for it ....
Export cause to spread in another part of the world. (Verb)
