Have a look at the fine manual:
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.63/doc/html/spec_html/ch09.html#id2548356
An asterisk is only interpreted as a wildcard pattern at the beginning
of the expression. For more sophisticated search patterns you have to
use regular expressions.
E.g. this line in your file should deny mails with subjects containing
the substring 'test987123' :
^.*test987123
