Answer:

VP

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no subject, and suddenly is the verb.

To determine if a sentence fragment is a noun or verb phrase, simply see if it contains a noun or a verb. (It cannot contain both)

Whichever one it contains is what phrase it is.

NP: His lovable horse

VP: Suddenly found a dollar

NOTE: Putting the two together would result in a correct, albeit strange sentence.

His lovable horse suddenly found a dollar.

I'm always happy to help :)
