5 letter words ending in HT almost always take a consonant in the third position. Past answers such as TIGHT, WIGHT and YACHT all keep it, and C fills the third position more than any other letter.
Since the H and T are fixed as a pair, the other three tiles are what decide the answer. Testing a consonant there rules out more than testing a vowel.
