Final Orders (3/1) used his jumping experience to put his rivals to the sword in the rated novice chase.
The Camelot gelding, who won a beginners' chase at Killarney earlier in the month, made all and one by one the field thinned out behind him. Favourite Low Style departed at the first, market springer The Banger Doyle at halfway and West Breeze two out when in vain pursuit in second.
Final Orders passed the post nine lengths to the good over Golden Sandbanks
After Derrylinda in the opener, Donoghue was completing a double for trainer Gavin Cromwell and said: "I wanted to make use of him as he stays three miles well. I left him bowl away, used his jumping and he jumped well apart from a few little mistakes. They are probably the biggest fences he has jumped but he has loads of scope.
"The ground looks worse than it is and I wouldn't call it soft."
He added: "My weight is brilliant, I am getting on well with Gavin and plenty other people are very good to me - that's 23 winners this season and hopefully I will beat my best, 36."
