Not as much unsoundness as often that I could see and a fair few worthy clues. Some exceptions that I discounted to start with included: 1 (noun indication of anagram?); 35 (no indication of "again" aspect in definition; 41 (no anagram indicator). With a lot of clues showing the same treatments, instead my criteria were originality combined with elegance and relevance. Using this as the yardstick, 5 clues stood out, namely 12 (runaway winner, I suspect), 55, 36, 28 and 19.
