I just downshift twice (or three times if going from fifth to second like before turn 17 in PIRC). Braking from fifth at 110-120 to reach third gear speeds (50-60) takes enough time to do a heel-and-toe down to fourth and then to third. Doing multiple single gear downshifts also helps prevent money shifting.
If you want to try a single downshift from fifth to third I would wait to do it right before turn in when speed is low enough to not have to worry about a money shift.
