Be on speed by the gate
Next time
Adjust power to bring the approach speed onto 134 kt and hold it through the gates.
What happened: The approach speed deviated from the target through the stabilisation gates. This kind of deviation usually carries through to an unstable threshold crossing.
Watch for: Watch the airspeed indicator against 134 kt.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 46 kt FAST on the reference speed of 134 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,191 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 555 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 09 at VIJP Jaipur International Airport in approximately 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 09, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 152 kt and left the ground after traveling 1,967 m, which represented 58 % of the runway length; ambient temperature was 33 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 179°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and no head-wind.
Climb commenced 2 mi east of VIJP, with the airplane ascending from 2,212 ft asl to 37,671 ft asl-a gain of 35,459 ft-over 42 minutes while covering 309 nm.
Level cruise began 8 mi north-west of Jalalpur Pirwala and continued for 166 minutes, during which the flight covered 1,351 nm.
Descent was initiated 10 mi north of Bautino, descending from 37,539 ft asl to 1,216 ft asl, a loss of 36,324 ft in 15 minutes and spanning 131 nm.
The final approach to runway 27 at URWA Astrakhan International Airport was flown from the east, on a heading of 277.0° at 4 nm and 1,267 ft agl; local weather reported a temperature of 35 °C, wind 4 kt from 340°, a 4 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind.
Landing on runway 27 was achieved with a threshold speed of 135 kt, a touchdown point 141 m beyond the touchdown zone, and a touchdown speed of 123 kt; the aircraft touched down smoothly at a rate of minus 107 fpm and aligned perfectly with the runway, using a total landing distance of 1,207 m (38 % of the runway).
Runway rollout proceeded without deviation, maintaining perfect alignment throughout the deceleration phase.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, traveling less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,799 nm, required 229 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 11,648 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 27 at URWA Astrakhan International Airport was conducted from the east on a heading of 277.0° at 4 nm and 1,267 ft agl. The aircraft was aligned with the centreline in a steady crab, with temperature 35 °C, wind 4 kt from 340°, a 4 kt cross-wind component and a 2 kt head-wind component.
Threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 135 kt.
Touchdown occurred 141 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 123 kt described as good. The touchdown rate was smooth at minus 107 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 1,207 m, representing 38 % of the 3,191 m runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.
Minor refinements should focus on reducing the threshold speed to the target value and aiming to touch down within the designated touchdown zone to further optimise runway usage.
