correct me if i'm wrong someone, but you could use bindModel(). you can set an association as and when you need it with the same parameters as defining an assocation at the model level.
so, when you require only those three fields you could use bindModel at that point. i'm thinking that if you use bindModel with an already associated Model then it will simply overwrite it in that particular association array. i'm yet to confirm if you need to unbind and then rebind. i need to look through the code more. sorry i couldn't of been more help.
