7-letter words with L second and N fourth
PLANXTY leads at 19 points, with BLINTZE at 18 and FLUNKEY at 17. The top scorers are less familiar than the plain entries, so a rack search can split into two jobs: find a playable everyday word such as BLANKET, then check whether a premium-letter option fits the board better.
R is the most common ending at 41 matches, followed by D at 36 and S at 30. PLANNER shows the R finish, PLANNED the D finish, and PLANETS the S finish. Those three endings cover most of the likely options, but the remaining forms include Y and E as well.
