Morante de la Puebla, also a participant, managed to cut one ear but faced a dangerous moment when he was tossed by a bull. The afternoon's bulls came from the esteemed ranches of Torrealta, Garcigrande, and Núñez del Cuvillo.
David de Miranda's performance was particularly noted for his connection with the La Malagueta crowd. He handled a noble but less powerful bull with skill, earning both ears after a decisive finish. His final bull, a more challenging Torrealta, required him to demonstrate firmness and close-quarters technique, culminating in a dramatic moment where he was tossed without apparent injury.

He skillfully imposed his dominance, leading the bull to eventually seek refuge against the barriers, before finishing with a strong sword thrust. The crowd responded enthusiastically to his display of firmness and command.
