Saruman and the Nazgul - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

In Chapter ten of book four; 'The Palantir' in the two towers, Pippin looks into the palantir and a Nazgul flies over their campsite on it's way to Isengard to see what Saruman is supposedly 'up to' right after the 'Voice of Saruman' and the breaking of his staff.

Gandalf states "He has power still, I think, while in Orthanc to resist the Nazgul. He may try to trap it, or to kill it's steed." Something along those lines anyway.

That's all the detail the book goes to on that matter, so any ideas as to what could have happened?
