Programs like that search very selectively suffer less from horizon effect, because they do not have a sharply defined horizon. The positions in the leaves of their search tree are evaluated by a huge neural network, which is trained on millions of positions. And it is unavoidable that this training also makes it understand a lot of simple tactics by pattern recognition. Such tactics can then never be pushed over the horizon.
