Poet's undone, losing lead in race at the end (6) *NLA*T

Pretty sure that there isn't a clash.

Grid filled apart from that and the third (double entry) individual. I have
*AYER and *URIE.

Hints appreciated - I don't submit.

All done and dusted, malone.

I had a brainfreeze with GOEPPERT as the surname which totally wuzzed me! I was also thrown by a CURIE in the grid and amongst the extra letters.

Hi xwordfan, the "o" from Nobel. It appears in one of the unclued "individuals" but they're not highlighted.
