Romsdal makes a third appearance at Newbury, UK, in the 12-furlong G3 Worthington Victoria Club Stakes on Saturday, October 24.
The John Gosden-trained four-year-old has enjoyed contrasting fortunes on his two previous visits to the Berkshire course, finishing last in the extended 13-furlong G3 Betfred Geoffrey Freer Stakes on August 15 and third in the G3 Dubai Duty Free Finest Surprise Stakes over a mile and a half on April 18.
Romsdal's best run of 2015 came over 12 furlongs at Ascot on July 25, when he kept on to finish third in the G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) over 12 furlongs.
The Halling colt finished fourth over the same course and distance on his latest start in the G3 Gigaset Cumberland Lodge Stakes on October 3.
John Gosden said: "It is obviously getting late in the year and so this is the last opportunity for Romsdal to run in England.
"I am hoping for an improved effort from him on Saturday."
Romsdal, who is partnered for the fifth time by William Buick, tackles eight rivals including G2 Park Hill Stakes second Melodious plus Rawaki and Koora, who have both been placed at Listed level.
