Bazil, Lord Fielding became the Second Earl of Denbigh after his Royalist father was killed at the storm of Birmingham in 1643. Subsequently he was appointed Parliamentarian General of the Midland Association, taking his own troop of horse to the Midlands, but leaving the rest of the regiment under Colonel Middleton to serve in Essex's army. His second regiment was the Earl of Denbigh’s Regiment of Horse

Middleton left Essex's army after Cheriton, joining Waller's army of the Southern Association where he raised another cavalry regiment in the summer of 1644.
