Shaun, I'm not finding a consistent answer, but I think the trend is toward lower case.
My unabridged Random House does capitalize the verb "Anglicise"--but it's from 1983. (I really should replace it!) My print Merriam-Webster from 1999 has lower case for the verb, no entry for the derived noun.
Merriam-Webster online, in its entry for "anglicise" says "Often capitalized" but uses lower case in its examples. The Wikipedia entry uses lower case in running text. Fowler's 3rd ed. is silent on the question.
Just some data, to use as you will.
