I would say that according to the rules you cannot use the 'gh' contraction for several reasons:  10.11.1 says to not use a groupsign which would bridge the words which make up an unhyphenated compound word; 10.11.2 says to not use 'gh' when the 'h' is aspirated...which it is in leghorn; 10.12.6 shows the bighorn example (stating not to use a contraction when it would hinder the recognition of the word).  You should not rely on your software for this one; but rather follow the rules.
