This bullfight was notable for an indulto of a bull (ganadería Montalvo) by Miguel Ángel Perera.

I believe that the bulls presented at this bullfight were, as a group, the finest six bulls I have witnessed in the ring. The bulls charged as if on rails, and never stopped charging.

An excellent video of this bullfight can be found here.
