5a) TEST ROAD = anagram of 'started' with O in the middle
10a) lulu
1a) PLACES = 'paces' outside of L
9a) ALMOND-EYED = facial feature http://www.tfd.com/almond-eyed

fellow = AL - just a man's name
rich = MONEYED
embracing daughter = put D in the middle

al monDeyed
sorry 5a is more likely to be ROAD TEST
