Final Orders ran out a facile winner of the Tote Guarantee On All Irish & UK Races Beginners Chase at Killarney.
The Gavin Cromwell-trained six-year-old had the race in safe keeping a long way from home and only a mishap would have prevented him from getting off the mark on his second chase start.
Runner-up at Downpatrick on his initial attempt, the gelding benefited from that experience to win eased down under jockey Keith Donoghue. King Ferdinand stayed on best of the remainder in second, with the locally trained Definiteadare third for Ian O'Connor.
Keith Donoghue said; "he is a very good jumper, probably improved a little bit over fences and had a nice run over 2m1f the last day so we were confident going up in trip today.
"He was well in today as he was rated 102 over hurdles, is very consistent and couldn't have done it much easier. He is no star but always runs his race and you wouldn't mind a few more like him."
