Dax feria 2026 faces disappointing start

The 2026 Dax feria has faced a disappointing start, characterized by lackluster performances and underwhelming bull presentations. The opening races involving bulls from Freixo were noted for being insufficient in presentation and lacking personality.

While some bulls from the JP Domecq lineage lacked strength and race, the event saw a standout performance from the young promoter Julio Norte, who achieved significant success during his appearance. Other notable mentions include Pablo Aguado, who was praised for his technique, and A. Roca Rey, whose performance was described as inconsistent.

Overall, the feria has struggled to gain momentum, with several highly anticipated bull lineages failing to meet expectations regarding caste and force.
