You can only send what you have got! Explain in a note that you don't have that passport. This is not a condition to obtain a passport.
The reason HMPO asks for these is to ensure that applicants are not using multiple identities using different names.

I am in a similar situation: cannot send passport used to enter UK, as it has been replaced and I was advised to shred it.

Please update us when you hear back from HMPO.

Thank you.

As advised you can't supply what you haven't got.
Provide your current and expired passports, ones you have.
This is not a new issue people encounter. Include a note explaining.
