Spain’s bullfighting season sees triumphs in Castilla y León, Ávila and Valladolid
Several Spanish bullfighting festivals reported notable victories this week. In Herrera de Pisuerga, Jorge Oliva was declared one of the three best toreros of the Castilla y León circuit after cutting an ear from his lot. The event concluded without injuries.
In Lanzahíta (Ávila), novice Miguel García made a striking debut, earning two ears and a shoulder‑exit after a flawless performance at the non‑picador novillada. The show also highlighted promising talents from the Salamanca school.
In Íscar (Valladolid), Borja Jiménez was crowned with three ears in a noble but uneven corrida, while Daniel Luque and Tomás Rufo each secured an ear on their second bulls. The festival proceeded safely, with organizers noting the calm atmosphere.
Pablo Aguado delivered a classic display in El Puerto, taking the best bull of the afternoon and earning two ears, reinforcing his reputation among the season’s leading matadors.
