Is this a petrified molar from cattle, horse or a deer?

Found this while digging up a portion of my yard. My first thought is that this was a molar from a cow since the area was pastures long ago.

Thanks for any help you can offer to identify this.

Some pretty gigantic deer ancestors used to roam the world in prehistoric times...
