Though not yet announced, and after a much anticipated wait, Ancestry.com has finally released the 1841 British Census online. There is a total of 5,107 Hortons indexed for this census.
Ancestry has also listed quite a long list of known problems against this census, so I encourage you to peruse the list carefully prior to commencing your research.
Once I have a chance to review it further, more details will be forthcoming.
