One hundred one words carry H second and A third, and two openings account for most of them.
C opens thirty seven of the one hundred one and S opens thirty two, which is sixty nine between them. CHAIR, CHASE, SHARE and SHALL all sit in those two branches.
Once you know a word has H second and A third, the opening letter decides everything. W takes eleven, T takes seven and K takes five, so there is a genuine tail behind the two leaders.
That tail is where puzzles get interesting. GHAZI, KHAKI, PHASE and BHANG all sit outside the CH and SH branches and are easy to forget.
SHALL, SHARE, THANK, CHAIR and PHASE are the most common, with CHAIN, CHART, SHAPE and CHARM close behind.
R takes it in eighteen of the one hundred one, ahead of N on ten. With twenty letters appearing there the box spreads wide, so it narrows without deciding.

Both are common and they split from the first box on. CHAIR tests the I, which SHARE does not, so it covers slightly more ground.
Eleven of the one hundred one finish with it, almost all from CK and NK endings like SHACK, SHARK and THANK.
