Not probably what you want to hear.... I don't buy
girths without the ring built in anymore. I lost too many girth loops, where I'd
unfasten breastcollar, then when I undid girth to take saddle off, forgot, and
girth loop falls off... Just hard for me to keep track of them. Yes,
some horses may be more sensitive. I have had some girths that have the D ring
built in to the girth still cause problems, as the method used to attach the D
caused a big bump in the girth at that spot. I now always feel the side of the
girth that will be against the horse, to make sure there is no lump/bump from
the D being sewn in.
