There's no single curly gene which causes the curly coat, instead it's mutations on existing coat genes which cause the curly coats. It's possible for the horse to inherit two curly mutations at once, known as "dual gene curly horses". Dual genes can lead to some partial or complete bald horses.

TallyHo and RKOHaven, those horses are absolutely gorgeous! I think this has to be my favorite breed characteristic! Thank you for sharing!
