Thank you.

Right fore suspensory branch injury (lateral branch rupture).

It means that the horse ruptured the lateral branch in the suspensory ligament in the right front leg. (There are two branches - medial and lateral.) Prognosis wouldn't be very good for a full recovery due to the slow healing nature of suspensory ligament injuries and the fact that when they DO heal, the ligament is weaker due to scar tissue that typically develops.
