It was stated by Silver that Keith was no where near the other 9DG in power so I can say that if Lucy fared well against Jackal and Torafusa while almost on "E" than she could have also fought against Keith with ease. Also current Lucy has better feats than Gajeel even without the whole CSK summoning. Like I said her Tartarous form has better physical showings than Gajeel and Gajeel is a physical fighter.
