I would suggest that if the downward force on the towing vehicles rear wheels was increased the friction with the road would be increased. This would help with traction and reducing the chance of the wheels slipping. Therefore, more downward stopping force.
However, this extra friction would probably be negated by the fact that the total mass of the car and trailer would increase the forward momentum, which would take more time and distance to stop.
Just my view you understand
