[QUOTE="XCorvis, post: 72401, member: 1265"] Make sure you read the Revised Polymorph and Wild Shape rules in Tome and Blood and Masters of the Wild, respectively. The contain many clarifications. In this case, Polymorph doesn't do anything to the gauntlets because the new form can wear them. The dwarf has a strength of 11, plus 2 from the gauntlets, just like a normal dwarf. If you turn into a horse (or other handless creature), the equipment melds with your body and becomes nonfunctional. Any normal spell, assuming it can be used on the new form, should remain in effect, including Bull's Strength and Divine Power. Turning into a form with no hands or feet may end a Spider climb spell (DM's call). Nothing addresses inherent bonuses, but since they apply to physical stats, it would be reasonable to assume that they are linked to the body rather than the mind/spirit, so they would not be applied to the new form.
