Shooting over the ball sure makes the 15 tough. It also looks like you if you shoot it, you could scratch in Frost's pocket if you got just the wrong kind of carom off one of the balls at the bottom of the stack.
On the other hand, if you shoot the three-railer you better either make it or leave the cue ball up behind the balls because Scott potentially has several nice one bank shots if you leave too much air -- and of course if your cue ball goes too far you could totally sell out.
I might play the one-railer on the 11 instead -- playing cue ball priority -- with the intent of just opening balls up on my side.
i think you pocket the 15 here then move the 10 over and try to freeze the cue ball on the seven

The 15 is your only leverage. I would protect it by thinning the 5 ball and putting the cue ball over behind the two balls on Scott's side near the side pocket.
