That's a slightly different game because it's a racetrack.

But I disagree with Chilli.

From the north - overhead the beacon at 2000, then outbound 063 for time T, with a left turn back to intercept the 243 track inbound to the beacon, descending not below 1310. And then you carry on inbound with the ILS.

The manoeuvre is not an easy one, as you should not descend below the turn platform altitude of 2000 until established on the inbound track or localiser. There is likely to be only just enough time to do this before the glideslope comes alive. Thus I'm not sure I would blame anyone for wanting to join the hold first.
