Hold N at the end and work backward through the evidence. Before that known tile, BARN tests B, A, and R without a duplicate. Check those letters against the earliest open squares first, because that is where similar endings usually part company.
The final N earns BARN a place on this page. The earlier letters still need to satisfy your greens, yellows and exclusions before the word deserves a turn.
