ANJELLA has won three times this year with her latest success at Windsor the most convincing. She can defy a penalty in her current form, though Port Noir scored over track and trip back in March and has won over 7f here subsequently. The latter is preferred to Twentysharesofgrey back on this surface. Liberty Bay missed an engagement to run at Bath yesterday so Verreaux Eagle looks best of the rest.
