Reject one's odd daughter for having uplifting feature (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
snub nosed
'having uplifting feature' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'reject one's odd daughter' is the wordplay.
'reject' becomes 'snub' (snubbing is a kind of rejecting).
'odd' is an anagram indicator.
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'ones' is an anagram of 'nose'.
'snub'+'nose'+'d'='SNUB-NOSED'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
