The first of the bull runs of the Sanfermin Fair 2024 will be held with the bulls from the La Palmosilla cattle ranch. According to the data collected to date by Sanfermin.com, in the three previous participations of La Palmosilla in this event, no goring incidents have been recorded. This year, one of the most complex circumstances is that it coincides with the first day of bull runs and Sunday, which predicts a large influx of people that could substantially increase scenes of danger. On Sunday bull runs, the section with the fewest gorings is Ayuntamiento (2 out of 47 bull runs). Additionally, the data also tells us that the bulls from La Palmosilla have completed the Pamplona bull run in their three participations in a time less than 3 minutes, with a minimum duration of 2 minutes and 12 seconds. As the years go by, the bulls from this cattle ranch complete the bull run in increasingly more time, going from 2.12 in 2019 to 2.30 in 2023.

It is expected that in the next bull run of La Palmosilla at San Fermín, the cattle ranch will continue to demonstrate its characteristic skill and agility. Considering its impeccable track record, it is likely that they will maintain their streak without gorings and continue to set competitive times in the race. Regarding the general statistics of the event – and they are just numbers – it is anticipated that it will be the twenty-third time that no gorings occur in a bull run held on July seventh. It is estimated that this bull run will rank as the thirty-fourth slowest held on a Friday and the fourteenth fastest.

Furthermore, it is expected that La Palmosilla will continue to establish itself as one of the most prominent cattle ranches at San Fermín. With their previous participation in this festivity during the year 2023, also coinciding with a July seventh, it is projected that they will maintain their level of excellence and continue to make an impact in the bullfighting world.

In summary, it is anticipated that La Palmosilla will continue to impress fans with its outstanding performance in the next San Fermín bull run. Its reputation and unique skills position it as a respected and admired cattle ranch within the bullfighting sphere among runners at one of the most relevant bull runs in the world. In the last bull run held in Pamplona by these young bulls, they slipped three times at Santo Domingo, Curva de Mercaderes, and Telefónica but did not charge at any moment towards the runners. As seen on every July seventh, there were many people along the route. This year, besides being on July seventh, the run falls on a Sunday.

Bullruns on Sundays

Bull runs on Sundays have seen eight gorings at Telefónica. The last one was last year with Cebada Gago. On Sundays, Callejón is the section with most gorings (11 out of 47 bull runs), while Ayuntamiento has had fewer gorings (2 out of 47 bull runs).
