Solution

The correct option is C reins
The word, "reins" refers to a long thin piece of leather, which is attached to the bridle (or headgear) of an animal like a horse. It is used by a rider/ driver by pulling/ exerting pressure to control the movement of the horse. Hence, option C is correct.
Options A and B are incorrect as "chains" and "ropes" are not used by riders to control horses.
Option D is incorrect as the "hair" of a horse cannot be pulled by a rider to control it.
