My only thought is that you may still need to make the singletrees be 
able to move more inches back and forth with the motion of her shoulders 
when she is trotting out. Also maybe the breastplate with the V in the 
front, so that you can raise it higher, but the V part will not make it 
interfere with her esophagus.
