If Saruman had been on the side of the Free Peoples, then the element of danger for the Rohirrim would have been far smaller, and I don't think they would have truly realized the magnitude of the danger posed to Gondor. Since they themselves had been under a great deal of danger, they knew that they would have to get to Gondor as quickly as possible.
