Gotta break your 6 prime.

I think there are several reasons to break the 7 point: (1) You have four builders, rather than three trained on the blot, should it not escape;

(2)He has 11 escaping numbers either way, but after breaking the 7 points, his 5-1 and 6-5 are not really escaping numbers, so it is 11 vs. 7;

(3)6-6 leaves you a sizable dog after breaking the eight, but 5-5 is almost an even game after breaking the 7.

The main advantage of breaking the eight, that I see, is you will be forced to leave fewer shots the next turn, should he not escape, but that is not enough to outweigh the multiple reasons listed above.
