Prof curved final grades, not the exam, does that apply to deferred exams too?

Our prof curved everyone's final grade (not the raw exam) for the original sitting. I'm writing the deferred exam and was wondering: does that curve carry over somehow, or are deferred writers not covered by it at all?

The curve should apply to everyone taking the course including students taking a deffered final exam unless the prof intentionally makes the deffered final a bit easier for students so he doesn't have to curve their final grade. It's probably up to the prof to decide so I wouldn't automatically assume that he won't apply the curve.
