Rails redirection to show when redirected to other action in same class

My Task is to submit a form to place_order action inside Checkout controller.
This is how I wrote form in my view file i.e

<%= form_for (@order), url: {action: "place_order"} do |f| %>

It does reach inside this method and as I save object i want to redirect to some other method in the same class. This method name is thank_you. My code looks like this inside place_order method

if @order.save
  redirect_to :action => 'thank_you'
else
  ...
end

But it redirects to show method of this class. If I change redirect to other class, it redirects fine but on other action of same controller, it always redirects to show.

Here is how I defined my routes

resources  :checkout
resources  :photos
devise_for :users
resources  :carts

post  'checkout/place_order'
match 'checkout/thank_you', to: 'checkout#thank_you', via: [:get]

I need some expert opinion on this. Please help.

Move your thank_you route above resources :checkout.

From Rails guides:

Rails routes are matched in the order they are specified, so if you have a resources :photos above a get 'photos/poll' the show action's route for the resources line will be matched before the get line. To fix this, move the get line above the resources line so that it is matched first.
