Your question is addressing an ever growing problem since the closure of basically all of the horse slaughtering facilities. The horse retirement farms are full and have really really long waiting lists and tons of people have horses they don't want to take care of any longer but can't find a good way to get rid of them even by attempting to sell them. The problem over the next few years will get exponentially worse.
I hope you have luck at finding a good home for them, but you may have to face the fact that you might be stuck with them till they die.

Post them on Petfinder:

Be very clear in your ad that they are retired and not for riding. Make sure you charge a reasonable adoption fee so that you eliminate anyone who wants to resell them. A contract would be a good idea. Go to visit the prospective adopter's home before you give the horses away. Good luck.

Contact a rescue group or the ASPCA.
Depending on where you live, the ASPCA may have livestock facilities and can find new homes for horses.
For more information, contact your local animal shelter. They may be able to give you some information on that.
