Saddlebreds as endurance horses

Hi,

I'm new to the endurance world and have leased a saddlebred 
to assist me in my quest to learn how to compete in endurance.
I've notice that about 95% of all endurance horses are Arabs, 
and while I love the breed (used to live in Egypt for awhile and
had a few), I prefer saddlebreds to ride.  What are the general opinions on
saddlebreds in endurance competition?  I saw that there is at
least one saddlebred with points on the AERC list, but hardly
any mention elsewhere...I would especially love responses from
people in or near Colorado (where I live).

Thanks,

Caroline
