struggling with Match Regex in Reconciliation Models

Question

I have written what I think is a very simple regex pattern for matching transactions from my bank feed, but it's not working as expected.
this is the regex for the Label:
PARKING|TRANSPORT|SCENTRE|PARK|TOLL the intention is to find any transaction that has any of these words in it
parking transport scentre Park  toll  this is working for quite a few transactions, however I have a transaction with this label:
THE SPOT WILSON PARKING  RANDWICK CREDIT CARD PURCHASE
and for some reason it's not matc

I resolved this by creating a regex that matches the entire string, not just part of the string:
^.*(some string|some other string|patternX|patternY).*$
