Someone may have a better solution but How about stacking a couple of bales of straw in the nose cone of the trailer to act as a 'breast bar' and just use a piece of baler twice attached through the loop that the breast bar would usually slot into to tie him up.. in fact you could always cross-tie him, attatching him to the partition side as well...

aha! perhaps I should take this up as a proffession! he he!
Glad it works!
 
yep, we cross tie our mini shetland x fallabella. Works just fine! The lorry is a bit more of an issue!
 
We cross tie our shetland works just fine for him. We tried the straw bale thing and he just tried to clamber all over them so not a good plan
