Batavia, NY – Batavia Downs would like to extend its sincere gratitude to Peter Kanter, DVM PhD, for his many years of dedicated service. Dr. Kanter’s professionalism, care, and commitment to the health and well-being of our horses has meant so much to our racing community over the years. He will truly be missed by all of us at Batavia Downs.
Due to Dr. Kanter’s departure, Batavia Downs is currently seeking a track veterinarian for the upcoming race meet. The summer/fall meet opens on Wednesday, July 22, and concludes on Saturday, Dec. 19. After a short break, there will be a 10-date winter meet, which begins on Jan. 4, 2027, and concludes on Feb. 4, 2027.
