Copy selected images to iCloud folder (involves Lightroom)

Is the following possible:
In an Adobe Lightroom catalogue set a property (rating, Pick, keyword, anything ...) and have Hazel copy only those files (which would be RAW) to a folder on iCloud bearing the same (partial) folder structure as the local file?

In short:
I have no interest in duplicating all the files within a particular folder, only those selected as good enough to edit. Then create a duplicate within a duplicated folder (or folder tree) on my iCloud Drive.

I don't know much about Lightroom, but you would have to set something Hazel has access to. If you click on the attributes pop-up for a rule condition, you can see what's available. You can select "Other…" to see a full extended list.

Thanks for your input. I did think it was a long shot, at best! I would think one more path worth pursuing is to read some element of the EXIF data. As luck will have Lightroom is crashing on me now – meaning I need to restart my Mac, and fingers crossed the catalogue is not corrupted – but I will explore this more deeply over the weekend.
