Which letters start these words?
S leads the opening-letter tally with 5 words, followed by T with 4 and H with 3. That spread gives you a practical starting point when the first tile is unknown: try S before rarer opening letters such as B, C, or D.
The fixed ending makes this pattern much narrower than some nearby searches. With R in the third position and H at the end, the matching group has 86 words; this I-and-H combination has 26. Keep the final H fixed, but check whether the third-letter clue is certain before ruling out other possibilities.
Which of these words score highest?
DJIBBAH tops the score ranking at 22 points. AZIMUTH and KHIRKAH each score 21, with ZAITECH also at 21. The useful playing insight is to inspect the whole rack, not just the rare final H: the top scores come from words with valuable letters elsewhere in the pattern.
This group has a real vocabulary limitation: only 2 entries count as common, even though 20 have definitions. For tournament play, check your game's word list; the dictionary coverage differs, with 14 matches in ENABLE against 26 in Collins. SPINACH and TRIUMPH make easier anchors than many of the remaining entries.
