Oracle text lookup...

Fellow Oracle types...

So, I have a query like this:

select * from ORG_NAME where contains(NAME, '% ward')
> 0
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-51030: wildcard query expansion resulted in too
many terms


What I want is to be able to bring back records like:

My ward
your ward

and not bring back records like

backward
frontward

Any ideas on how I do this. Looking at Metalink and
Google it looks like the % is just expanding
everything...
