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.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,921 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 557 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 1.99 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A320neo taxied from the parking area to runway 25R at KLAX, a movement that required 12 minutes and covered approximately 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 25R, the aircraft accelerated through a takeoff distance of 1,737 m, representing 48 % of the runway length, and achieved a liftoff speed of 160 kt. Ambient conditions were 22 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 050°, a 2 kt crosswind component and a 3 kt tailwind component.
The climb commenced 1 mile northwest of El Segundo, California, with the aircraft ascending from 1,092 ft asl to 36,640 ft asl, a gain of 35,548 ft achieved in 27 minutes while covering 184 nm.
Level cruise began 16 miles northeast of the 0O2 Baker Baker VOR in California and continued for 53 minutes, during which the flight traversed 459 nm at cruise altitude.
Descent was initiated 2 miles southwest of Paris, Idaho, with the aircraft descending from 37,015 ft asl to 7,619 ft asl, a loss of 29,395 ft over 20 minutes and a distance of 133 nm.
The final approach to runway 19 at KJAC was conducted from the north, on a heading of 199.0° at 4 nm and 1,188 ft agl, positioning the aircraft for landing.
Landing on runway 19 at Jackson Hole Airport was performed on a runway 1,921 m long; the threshold speed was 144 kt. Touchdown occurred 155 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 137 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 378 fpm and very good runway alignment. Local weather reported a temperature of 26 °C, wind 4 kt from 222°, a 2 kt crosswind and a 4 kt headwind. The total landing distance measured 1,319 m, equivalent to 69 % of the runway.
Runway rollout proceeded with very good alignment, allowing the aircraft to decelerate safely after touchdown.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 784 nm, took 113 minutes, and consumed 4,616 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A320neo conducted the final approach to runway 19 at KJAC from the north, tracking a heading of 199.0° at 4 nm and 1,188 ft agl in temperature 26 °C with wind 4 kt from 222° (crosswind 2 kt, headwind 4 kt). At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable because the sink rate was too high.
At threshold the aircraft presented a good threshold height and the threshold speed was good at 144 kt, indicating the aircraft was correctly configured for landing.
Touchdown occurred 155 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 137 kt, noted as a little fast, and a firm touchdown rate of minus 378 fpm. Runway alignment at touchdown was very good on runway 19, whose length is 1,921 m.
Rollout alignment remained very good and the aircraft used a total landing distance of 1,319 m, representing 69 % of the runway length.
To refine future performance, attention should be given to reducing the sink rate to achieve a stabilized approach at the 1,000 ft gate, and the flare should be managed to bring touchdown speed closer to the target and keep the touchdown point nearer the intended aim point.
