Formscan - OPERA BALLO was a shade disappointing in the Craven, but he bounced back to form in no uncertain terms when landing the Heron Stakes at Sandown. The progressive Ghaiyyath colt could have plenty more in the locker and is taken to provide Charlie Appleby with a first win in the contest since Al Suhail in 2020. King Of Cities wasn't beaten far into ninth in the Prix du Jockey Club at Chantilly and must be respected in these calmer waters, while Arabian Story takes a step up in class having landed the Britannia last month.
