Soay are certainly light on the ground and have excellent feet so should tolerate your wet ground better than white Shetlands. Hebs and coloured Shetlands will come somewhere in the middle, but all have good feet.
You need to consider also ease of management, companionability, horns which could damage equines in a fight, purchase cost and ease of sourcing.
I think I would plump for coloured Shetland wethers as they are easy to source, inexpensive to buy, readily available, easy to manage, no horns, can be roo'd if you don't know how to shear and would be calm with horses.
