Bridle straps (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reins

'bridle straps' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for reins that I've seen before include "Power to direct and control" , "Means of control for a horse" , "Rider's straps" , "water regulators?" , "Harnesses" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the Universal, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Star Tribune, the USA Today and the LA Times.
