Can any of you identify this wood?

A handmade home for woodworkers and admirers of woodworkers. Our community icon is a planter box made by @Captain Aggravated, the winner of our summer '24 woodworking contest. Congratulations!
Hard to tell From the photo, but might be Ash. If so, it would make a great axe handle. But you can of course make an axe handle out of any hardwood, it will mostly be fine.
Could also be oak?
Doesn't look like oak to me. For oak, I look for medullary rays that would appear running perpendicular to the rings on the end grain. I don't see any of those.
Thanks
