ascot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'berkshire town' is the definition.
(town in Berkshire)

'an aberdonian' is the wordplay.
'an' becomes 'a'.
'aberdonian' becomes 'scot' (I've seen this in another clue).
'a'+'scot'='ASCOT'

'say in' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?
