"Erin Alberda will be showing her Swedish Warmblood Delectari at the World Equestrian Games.  "He is my first horse," said Alberda.  "I bought Dylan as a first level horse and it has been an incredible honor to be a part of his training alongside my trainer Jenny Nell. Before Dylan I only rode schoolmasters where I was the inexperienced dance partner.  Riding Dylan has required me to be a lot more confident in my riding. The best part of Dylan is that he has taught me how to laugh when I ride.  He has quite a sense of humor!  Owning the horse I will compete on adds a certain dimension of excitement and a bit of vulnerability. I am definitely proud that Dylan was bred and raised right here in the U.S."

Delectari (ex Dylan) is born 1998 by Kronprinz 9046 out of Daiquiri by Constitution, breeder is Michele McFadden. Kronprinz is by Guldgossen 9031 (by Gaspari 340-Drabant 315) and Constitution is by Caletto I.
