5th Novillada of the Season Soñadores de Gloria without horses
Kilometric celebration where the attendance improves day by day, which started with radiant sun and ended with gusts of wind and almost rain.
Novillos bred by Roberto Garfias Canovas, at Rancho El Palmar in Villa de Arriaga in San Luis Potosí. Heir of his father, the potosino architect Don Marco Antonio Garfias, nephew of the famous breeders Don Pepe and Don Javier. Cattle behavior: 1st With a good pace on the right side, 2nd Without breed and not restrained, 3rd Uncertain, 4th Good with transmission, 5th Got bored quickly, 6th Complicated with breed that deserved more understanding, 7th With breed, 8th Not well dominated.
The native of Naucalpan, State of Mexico, Sebastián Ibelles, brother of the matador Cesar, opened the plaza. He fought the best bulls. He had a voluntary afternoon. With his first one, he managed to get comfortable and showed good details on the right side, however, he fails to communicate with the stands. With his second one, who also had transmission, Sebastián got tired of hitting countless meaningless passes. It took an eternity to kill, and Ibelles sweated to dispatch the fourth one to the other world.
Deservedly, the capital triumphant José María Mendoza repeated as the second sword. He suffered a very disorderly fight from his team, who could not restrain his bull. He was at the mercy of it. He did poorly with the sword as Mendoza delivered a disastrous blow. He retired in silence before hearing a warning and booing the bad bull. With his second bull, he had to overcome the wind. He had no understanding with the audience or the bull, and thanks to Judge Chucho Morales' criteria, he only received two, out of the three warnings he deserved. This novillero requires more experience.
The tall Michoacan, Mauricio Medina, demonstrated courage and willingness, but also a lot of inexperience. Despite his natural intuition. With his first one, he showed a lack of connection with his cape and muleta work. He seemed lost with the sword. Unfortunately, he heard the three warnings and his first bull escaped alive. With the fifth one, Medina was once again at the mercy of the bull and was ugly gored, and the monosabios took him to the infirmary. There was a lot of confusion from Judge Morales because, despite granting it to the first matador, Ibelles, he didn't know what to do when Medina returned to the ruedo and created an unusual confusion of two different matadors stabbing the same bull. He ended up dispatching the bull, Mauricio Medina.
The fourth novillero was the hidrocálido Roberto Román, who showed skill by thinking in the face of his first bull. His faena had ups and downs, and the Judge determined, without any request, to grant him an ear after piercing his bull, and Román wisely decided to keep it in his vest. With the one that closed the plaza, he once again showed a lot of willingness and stood up to the bull.
The company shows willingness and the novilleros show daring, but such inexperienced novilleros can cause a potential mishap.
