I would look at the Magura MDR-P rotors. I am not using my 203 for cargo but it is fantastic with MT5s on my Supercharger. Really excellent stopping power and very very stiff and seemingly decent thermal regulation. You still might want to rig up a brake on the trailer somehow but they are excellent rotors.
