Decorative cast brass piece

Found this decorative cast brass piece today. Looks like it functioned as a guide. Anyone recognize this?

No idea but it’s really cool. Can’t wait for an ID.

Shotgun shell extractor?

I haven’t seen a reins guide that attaches like that before. That little clip doesn’t seem strong enough to withstand the force of the horses to me.

I don't think its a rein guide. But honestly it has my stumped, even to guess!
