Hmm, if you have some stemming algorithm on that field, [a-z]+works is never going to work but [a-z]+work should. If the field contains Juniper Networks, [a-z]+works is not going to be found due to -s being stripped. But if the field is not tokenized net[a-z]+ is also not going to find anything. You can always test with q=field:/.*/ to prove regex works.
