Long hair could be a consequence of oncoming winter or, if the coat remains long year round, a symptom of Cushing's Disease. Horses can also fail to shed if they have heavy parasite infestations.

Finally, if the hair coat and the mane and tail are Curly the horse may be part of the

Bakshir Curly breed that has a longer than normal hair coat that is wavy/curly.
