Nicky Henderson was left scratching his head after Jeriko Du Reponet was pulled up on his chasing bow at Sandown.

A high-ranking novice hurdler last term, the five-year-old’s only defeat came in the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival, a time when the Seven Barrows string were under a cloud and Henderson ended up removing many of his stars from the firing line.

Sent novice chasing this term, he was reported to be excelling in his new discipline at home and was the 8-11 favourite to make a winning start in the Boodles Novices’ Limited Handicap Chase.

However, a somewhat unusual series of events saw the race delayed by almost 10 minutes as the field waited for Jeriko Du Reponet to arrive at the post, before the market leader’s race came to a premature end soon after the fourth-last.

Anthony Honeyball’s Brookie (11-2) eventually edged out Jim Boyle’s Classic Anthem by half a length at the finish.
