envisioning a flight path which takes you both over and abeam the

can see either, but not both, so I don't understand the "whichever

later" bit.

You enter the hold by flying over the VOR outbound. Subsequent circuits
you would time abeam the VOR. You need to time both the initial
outbound leg as well as the rest.
