Once saw a 1980s 8 ton Marshall leading heavy rubble with a drawbar bend that defied the laws of physics but it hadn't snapped and the farmer was carrying merrily on.
Your trailer should be fine with a bit of box up the middle and fish plated on the outside by a competent welder. Personally if it's a fixed drawbar I'd put a triangular bit of box above the drawbar to the chassis.
 
How is it possible to fix a piece of box up the middle ??
Is suspension worn on trailer or incorrect tyre pressure putting too much weight on front of trailer
