My guess is that they are following the popular order of the books. I would also be curious to see how they handle the obvious (and correct) negativity towards the Arabian and Islamic people of Calormen.
Yeah, I was going to post that point too and wondered if they were leaving it out because it painted a bad picture of Arabs.

I didn't realize that The Horse and His Boy was in a different order. In the tale, all the Peavensies are still in Narnia ruling before they've chased the White Stag and returned from Narnia for the first time.
