A dragonfly rein assembly (10, 210, 310, 410) is described as being formed around a uniquely structured chin control link (12, 12A, 12B) which interacts with bit rings and reins (20, 220, 320, 420) of various types to provide a number of desirable horse and rider benefits. A flexible link (16, 16A, 16B) of predetermined length is deployed under the horse's chin and releasably affixed by a pair of coupling elements (14L, 14R) to the bit rings. The forward ends of the reins when affixed to the pair of couplings (14L, 13R) thereby transfer control pressures to the bit via the chin control link (12, 12A, 12B) while preventing pulling of the bit through the horse's mouth. A wide range of benefits for both horse and rider result from these interactions, including significant calming, improved riding and humane handling during all phases of use.
