We obtained low-resolution optical spectra (range 3600-9600 Angs., FWHM res ~ 8 Angs.) of the optical transients ASASSN-17ox/AT2017ict, ASASSN-17oy/AT2017icu, ASASSN-17pa/2017icv, and ATLAS17mxj/AT2017hsl on UT 2017 Nov. 15 with WFCCD mounted on the du Pont 2.5m at Las Campanas Observatory. We performed cross-correlation of the spectra with a library of supernova spectra using SNID (Blondin & Tonry 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024). The results are the following:
SN UT Date Spec. Type Phase Redshift

ASASSN-17ox Nov 15.19 Ia -1 0.095(SN)
ASASSN-17oy Nov 15.22 Gal --- 0.049(host)
ASASSN-17pa Nov 15.04 Ia +3 0.060(SN)
AT2017hsl Nov 15.16 Ia +20 0.037(SN)
