    One correction from Bahram: 185/Beckenbauer doesn't have any solid
    photo-z. Apparently his earlier estimate of 3.07 was based on an
    incorrect coordinate from Adam, and the new coordinate gives a galaxy
    that is almost completely unconstrained in photo-z.

    I still think Beckenbauer is probably a little too bright to be z > 1.2,
    but I'm not sure we can reject it (except that we don't know it's
    redshift -- so it might be equivalent to a hostless supernova).

    So, we may have boiled down to just three or four candidates to consider
    for z > 1.2:

    076/Zamorano: z = 1.61 (I'm a little doubtful about the
    identification of the host as elliptical -- as Greg points out)
    181 z = 1.5
    177/Adu z = 1.1 ( little low redshift for this search)

    (185/Beckenbauer unknown z)
