Your scenario didn't involve T in 3rd, so how was that evidence that T can be 3rd?
F - G - T
......../
.....R - S - H
According to our rules, we know that F, G, and R all need to come earlier than T.
Since there are 3 things that must come before T, we could never put T in 3rd.
(There would only be the first two spots available for those 3 things)
Also, G can be 3rd.
F R G T S H is a legal scenario.
F can be 3rd.
R S F G T H is a legal scenario.
R can be 3rd.
F G R T S H is a legal scenario.
So we can eliminate A thru D given that we know that G, F, and R all can be 3rd.
