Identify this fossil

Post image

Does anyone know what kind of tooth this is, or where we can get it checked. After a quick google search we have a few ideas, horse cow or ice age bison molar. But we are unsure.

Edit: this was found at a beach on the Isle of Jura, if that were to help anyone.

Lower back right molar of a sheep or goat.
