Dragon Driving is probably the cheapest, but is really for driving horses - although riding horses are sold on there too.  I would say Horse Quest if I was choosing ......but at the moment there are a lot on all the websites - not sure how fast they are selling.

I sold a couple on Horsequest a few years ago, they both sold for decent money too and I do think the more serious buyers are on there.

However, now we have Facebook and all the many pages on there offering horses and ponies, it's worth a try as it's all free.

The market this year is dire though, apparently in Beeston sales last week Jack Russell pups were selling for more than many horses :o  (I've never been there, and would never personally sell mine in a sale, it's just what I've heard on horse forums).
