Can't answer your direct question, (and I would like to know as well).  But
I can suggest that when you buy a trailer you might want to purchase one
with a front stall escape door.  Although no one ever expects to have a
wreck, probably the most common are rear enders and sometimes when that
happens the back gate gets so damaged that you can't open it.  Therefore if
you have a front stall escape door you can open it and lead the horses out
thru there.  This was one of the opinions I got on our Exiss trailer.

==========================================

I am planning on replacing my bumper pull with a gooseneck soon and wondered
how aluminum (frame & skin) trailers fair in wrecks compared to all steel
trailers. Is there any actual data on this or minimum requirements the
trailer manufacturers have to meet?
                    Thanks - Shelly & Shadow
