We report the following classifications of optical transients from spectroscopic observations with the Kast spectrograph on the Shane telescope. All observations were made on 2017 July 27 UT. Classifications were performed with SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024). Objects were reported in ATel#10598. Spectra are available at the Transient Name Server.
