Lunel: Vicar, Cobalt, Castella: class, caste and domination
|La Royale de la manade Saumade remplit les arènes San Juan. Cyril Daniel
En ce lundi pascal, la Royale de la manade Saumade remplit les arènes San Juan.
Under the renewed sunshine, the full arenas vibrated with aficion to the rhythm of the cockardiers of the Royale de Saumade.
Lou Pantaï from Camargue for a graceful opening in the colors of the Saumade manade. Cyril Daniel After the graceful capelado of the Arlésiennes du Pantaï de Camargue and with the musicality of the pena Camargua, the opening trio Sisco, Soliman and Vizir sets the tone in an authoritative manner. Then Vicar debuted his position as 4th in a brilliant manner, stirring the audience; Cobalt unfortunately gets injured after 10 minutes of domination, while the Biou d’Or 2023 Castella honors his title by closing with fanfare with vista and panache. With these bulls with an imposing character, the game was not easy for the raseteurs but François Martin took up the challenge with Zekraoui (until his exit in 3rd), as well as Félix, Katif and Naïm at times.
Vincent Félix at the head of the very good of this Royale Sisco. Cyril Daniel Sisco, N. 340.- Volunteer in his manhunt for 2 ribbons. From opportune placements along the perimeter, he supports his pursuits up to the ground (Katif, Félix, Zekraoui) under multiple equitable requests. At the end of the beat, a slight headbutt, a shifted position, and less clear-cut actions make him keep his strings in music (+ 2).
Soliman holds Youssef Zekraoui on the board, author of an excellent start to the race. Cyril Daniel Soliman N. 427.- Mobile and surprised at the first attributes, he blows the cold by his haughty attitude and the heat by his potential aggressiveness like these actions pushed after Félix, Naïm, F. Martin. This false rhythm does not help him to surpass himself and the strings will not have any takers.
Vizier bumps behind Yassim Naim Cyril Daniel Vizier N. 504.- From the first raset, he rushes into the perimeter after F. Martin and strikes after Naïm. Well in place, he strings together long series in a classic style imbued with great bravery. The actions multiply under the applause for the 2nd string to Naïm on the gong. 7 Carmen and back.
Vicar's strong early start against Vincent Félix. Cyril Daniel Vicar N. 405.- Serious and brilliant presides over his quarter of an hour. Well in place, he takes the step carrying the raseteur in his momentum. Beware of those who start off too late, finding themselves stuck in the water. When the preparations drag on, Vicar imposes his pace of anticipation and his hair-raising pursuits. In this game, the duos make the stands vibrate, especially those with François Martin or Vincent Félix. Left-handers are certainly less happy, but what a treat these right-handed lengths are held until the end. Strings to the toril under deserved cheers. 8 Carmen and back.
The imposing Cobalt closes the door to François Martin, the man of the race. Cyril Daniel Cobalt N. 441.- His naturally dominant attitude requires long minutes before the first requests where he authoritatively brings back the whites, at the slightest movement. With perfect placement and replacement, it creates danger. To Katif, the cockade and a tassel. Unfortunately, victim of a limp, he regained the toril at the 10th, with the 2nd acorn, at the end of total domination. 2 Carmen and back.
The 2023 Biou d'Or Castella takes the stage behind Yassim Naim. Cyril Daniel Castella N.406.- With him too, the first rasets are slow and the public is growing impatient. Castella, well established, imposes his view, carves out a large space where he decides everything, keeping the turners at bay. Honoring his title of Biou d’Or, with authority, he takes precedence over F. Martin, points viciously after J. Martin. In turn, Katif, Félix, F. Martin, Naïm are quickly brought back, followed by an angry attack concluded loud and clear on Naïm, an oblique strike on Aliaga, stamp on Katif, and F. Martin is rewarded with the 1st well-prized string, at the 14th. 7 Carmen and return, plus loud applause.
