As usual Easter Hero set off in front and survived alarming errors at the first two fences to open up a clear lead. Danzelon fell early and Grakle was soon struggling, but Gib stayed in contention and steadily reduced the favourite's lead.

Randall and Tony Morris rated Easter Hero a "great" Gold Cup winner and the best British steeplechaser of the 20th century. They also described his second-place finish in the 1929 Grand National as "the greatest single performance in the history" of the race.
