Borja Jiménez displayed his most impressive bullfighting in Roquetas de Mar at the closing ceremony of the Santa Ana Fair. The bullfighter from Espartinas delivered two resounding performances against his two bulls, earning him four ears and a tail from the sixth bull, which was awarded a lap of honor. Juan Ortega also took home a trophy from the second bull of the afternoon, but was unable to join the procession on the shoulders of the crowd due to the lackluster condition of his opponent. Morante had an afternoon at the Puerta Grande without a sword , receiving two standing ovations after ruining his two performances with the steel, as reported in the Mundotoro chronicle.

Morante de la Puebla greeted the first of the afternoon with a long standing pass and a flurry of veronicas. The bull was noble , but at times showed a lack of breed . The Sevillian's performance was commendable; after being tossed about, he gradually developed a high-level performance, highlighting his natural bullfighting with beautifully crafted passages. A puncture and a failure with the descabello left his performance unrewarded.

Juan Ortega greeted the second bull of the afternoon with some very well-tempered verónicas, cheered on by the stands. He continued his brilliance with some tight chicuelinas . With a few double passes, he began a performance marked by Ortega's composure and skill in front of an animal that showed more spirit than class . A stab and an ear.

In his muleta work, the Sevillian masked the animal's flaws with command and power, delivering a commendable and important performance. The bullfighter went in for the kill and delivered a sword thrust that earned him two ears and a lap of honor for the bull.

Morante de la Puebla didn't want to be left behind against the fourth bull of the afternoon, delivering a performance marked by his artistry and bullfighting style . His natural bullfighting was sublime, covering up the transmission the bull lacked. He pricked the bull and lost the trophies.

Juan Ortega wanted to open the Puerta Grande against the afternoon's fifth bull, but it wasn't to be. The Jandilla bull showed lackluster condition from the outset , and the bullfighter delivered some respectable passes, but they were hampered by the animal's lack of lucidity.

Borja Jiménez delivered the most resounding performance with the sixth. His bullfighting was round, connected, commanding, and powerful over the charges of the best bull . The thrust earned him two ears and the tail .
