Award kept in De Niro's caravan? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oscar

'award' is the definition.
(Academy Award)

'in de niro's caravan?' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'OSCAR' can be found hidden inside 'de niros caravan'.

'kept' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for oscar that I've seen before include "- - Hammerstein (musicals)" , "Wildean film award?" , "One close to Mike" , "Boy" , "letter read out on radio" .)
