I feel like the Run Once schedule type might not be necessary for this. I’m leaning towards Data Extension and Winner evaluation.

This looks straightforward to me. The Data Extension entry source and Journey re-entry settings are the two settings I need to have in place before I can set the Holdback percentage. I'm feeling confident I can tackle this question.
