I will readily admit, I don't know EU rules or law for airline complaint resolution. Remembering that, I would say you have very little chance of recovery of any fees from Horizon as jimworcs briefly mentioned what the airline will fall back on.......

I dealt with this situation at length in HNL. If our flight was late into HNL and a passenger had a different booking on AQ or HA to an outer island, we had no obligation to compensate them if our flight was delayed inbound and they missed their connection. In other words, no hotel for overnight, no food, only rebook them and if there were fees incurred, the passenger would have to pay.

It's harsh, I agree but this is what BA may give you for their defense.
