The clue
What hangs heavy on the herd, and what a nervous stomach does, and what rises to the top.
The rack
Eighteen tiles were on the board. Every letter is worth its place in the alphabet, A = 1 to Z = 26.
E5M13R18C3R18R18E5U21D4T20D4A1N14C3R18H8A1U21
The answer
3 words, hitting 156 exactly: UDDER CHURN CREAM.
U21D4D4E5R18= 52
+C3H8U21R18N14= 64
+C3R18E5A1M13= 40
UDDER 52 + CHURN 64 + CREAM 40 = 156. SumHunt reads left to right, so there is no operator precedence to trip over.
