But this toro there is no better than the previous ones. The three spades do not reveal it either …
19h02
Juan Leal brinde his toro to the public of Plumaçon and begins knees, full center track. A good series, the toro pbades. On the right, it is rather good, even if the danger is never far away.
Juan Leal, on his knees at the beginning of his faena
Hailed by the public, Juan Leal sets himself up for the killing. He pinches the first and second attempts, despite a strong commitment. After other failures, he finally succeeds in the thrust.

The third Dolores, for Juan Leal, is much more mbadive than the first two. But it seems as manso as his brothers …
Pepe Moral brinde his first faena of the day to the public of Mont-de-Marsan. While the toro roars and falls, the matador signs a first series against a manso and uncertain opponent. He flees the muleta and seeks the querencia. The matador insists nevertheless. And sign a beautiful sword, well placed. But the toro did not transmit enough to hope for a trophy.
The second Dolores Aguirre does not indulge in cape, like the previous one. But he does not seem to have the same nobility as the previous one. On the other hand, he remains under the horse, without really pushing either.
Note that, as is the tradition now in Mont-de-Mars Marsan, for the torista bullfight of the Sunday, there is only one horse on the track, so as to charge the toros from afar. When they are able of course …

Not at all. It does not settle and the banderilleros must use all their experience to do their work.
Meanwhile, at the microphone of France Bleu Gascogne, Pierre-Albert Blain gives news of the hand of Octavio Chacon, deeply cut during the killing of the previous one: two tendons are affected. The arena surgeon is treating him.

Like Juan Bautista and Thomas Dufau on Friday, Octavio Chacon dedicates his toro to Richard Milian
He starts his work with doblones and quickly makes a good series with a change of hands.
Octavio Chacon places his toro in front of the toril for the killing . He pinches his first attempt and cuts himself deeply in the left hand. A pbadage to the infirmary is required. But first, he succeeds his second blow.
It ends well a nice work, very complete, to all tercios. But the petition does not have a majority. He will not cut an ear that may have been deserved. It is nevertheless a vuelta.
Vuelta for @octaviochaconof model in the lidia of a colorado manso y difícil al that robo tandas de mucho mérito. Pasa to the hermitage por ser herida in the mano izquierda. Ojala that vuelva.
The first Dolores is on track. Red and reserved. Carreman manso. He refuses to go into Octavio Chacon's cloak.
There is no shortage of nobility but totally disinterested in the horse. He does not want to load and ends up taking two small spades, escaping from contact.

Octavio Chacon replaces his picador and this time the toro will load and push on a horn. He then tries to test it on a quite. He puts it back again for the spades but this tercio will not have allowed him to reveal himself.

As in the cape, the second tercio, the toro seeks to take refuge near the toril.

Last paseo de la Madeleine 2018, in the arena of Plumaçon in Mont-de-Marsan. Octavio Chacon, Pepe Moral (chosen by the Montois aficionados) and Juan Leal parade this Sunday evening. They will face a very serious lot of Dolores Aguirre. One thing is certain, with this iron there, the show will be radically different from that of the day before, when Enrique Ponce and Sebastian Castella went out to hombros, after having fought the Nuñez del Cuvillo.
Sorteo of the day and Alain Bonijol's horses. The corrida of Dolores Aguirre for Octavio Chacon, Pepe Moral and Juan Leal starts at 18 hours at Plumaçon. # Madeleine2018 pic.twitter.com/NuZ0WilJbq
