Abstract: The recent BaBar measurements of the $gammagamm{a}^{\ast }op{i}^0$ transition form factor show spectacular deviation from perturbative QCD prediction for large space-like $Q^2$ up to $34,mGe{V}^2$. When plotted against $Q^2$, $Q^{2}F(Q^2)$ shows steady increase with $Q^2$ in contrast with the flat $Q^2$ behavior predicted by perturbative QCD, and at $34,mGe{V}^2$ is more than 50% larger than the QCD prediction. Stimulated by the BaBar measurements, we revisit our previous paper on the cancellation of anomaly effects in high energy processes $Z^{0}op{i}^{0}gamma$, $e^{+}{e}^{-}op{i}^{0}gamma$ and apply our results to the $gamm{a}^{\ast }gammaop{i}^0$ transition form factor measured in the $e^{+}{e}^{-}o{e}^{+}{e}^{-}p{i}^0$ process with one highly virtual photon. We find that, the transition form factor $F(Q^2)$ behaves as $(frac{m}^2{Q}^2)imes(ln(Q^2/m^2){)}^2$ and produces a striking agreement with the BaBar data for $Q^{2}F(Q^2)$ with $m=132,mMeV$ which also reproduces very well the CLEO data at lower $Q^2$.
