Cousins of GG and GS

What should we call a score at which the trailer's gammon does not win the match but it does mean s/he needs to win one fewer game in the comeback (i.e., the gammon price is not what it is at pure GG/GS)? For example, -3-c (i.e., -3-1 Crawford) or -6-p (i.e., -6-1 post-Crawford) from the trailer's point of view, or -c-3 or -p-6 from the leader's point of view?

Unless/until someone suggests something I like even better, I'll continue to use "gammon gain" or "gammon good" for such scores (and perhaps an acronym of Gg or gG) and inverse "gammon savvy" or "gammon salty" (Gs or gS) for the inverse.
