Hello everyone. Please can anyone help with these?

9a: Learned person positioned to accept leading figures (6)

I have - A - A - H. Unless I’ve got something wrong, I can’t find anything that fits.


51a: Acquire records covering end of Prince with no mention of Queen (7)

I have A - - - E - E


52d: Negative feeling surrounding small expedition (5)

I have - - S - E. The first letter is the third letter of 51a.


All help gratefully received!

9a your H is wrong. It parses as 3 inside 3.
51a a word for records, insert E, subtract R.
52d expedition is the sense of speed.
