The fixed pattern is _ _ _ N T _, with only the first three letters and final letter changing. Twenty-two entries rank as common by English frequency, so the set mixes ordinary choices such as plenty and plants with less familiar tournament entries. The sharpest clue is the ending: most matches take S or Y.
