Santander Feria de Santiago features strong showings by Samuel Navalón and David de Miranda

The third afternoon of the Santander Feria de Santiago saw veteran matador Samuel Navalón deliver a solid performance, handling a well‑bred bull from the La Quinta herd with a series of elegant passes before concluding with a decisive cut.

On the same day, newcomer David de Miranda impressed the crowd in his debut, coming close to opening the Puerta Grande and earning an ear after a clean finish on the sixth bull, despite limited opportunities from the livestock. Other participants, such as Talavante, struggled with a lack of quality in the animals, resulting in a modest showing.

The program for the following days includes a schedule of fights featuring bulls from Victorino Martín, Juan Manuel Criado and Juan Pedro Domecq, with seating options ranging from the front‑row barrera to more distant sections.
