Being in Bali they are not far from the range of Rusa.

The ears look like Rusa. Samba ears are more rounded.

The doe may have her head in a position which makes it look different.
The antlers are a bit strange, with knobbly brow tines. What I was looking for on the main beam was a shorter front tine and longer back tine, then I would be sure.
 
I'd say Rusa as well. Male sambar tend to have a bit of a ruff around the jawline and neck.

The Bali Zoo website states that it has Timor Deer (Javan Rusa) among others.
 
I am thinking its a Javan rusa, but I would like to think Bornean sambar because, I havent been able to track down holdings of that subspecies
