Are there any issues with using a new OA visa for re-entry to Thailand when my previous extension and re-entry permit are expiring?

I've just had my OA non immigrant multiple entry long stay visa based on Retirement Approved in Canberra.

My current extension issued in Jomtien expires 6 August 2019.

My re-entry permit also expires 6 August 2019.

My return to Thailand scheduled for 26 July 2019 BKK.

My feeling is to just enter on my new OA and not worry about the 10 days remaining on my re-entry permit.

Additionally this new OA is in a brand new Australian passport whilst the extension and re-entry are in my old cancelled passport which I think I should present along with my new passport at immigration BKK.

Does anyone see any pitfalls with this plan?

If so please explain why?

Thank you all.
