ntp server and peer: which has higher priority?

ntp server and peer: which has higher priority?

This question regards ntp symmetric mode.
Say I have Peer A (192.168.101.1) and Peer B(192.168.101.2) and configure their ntp.conf as follows:
# Peer A
peer 192.168.101.2
server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
For Peer B, I set both its server and peer to A.
# Peer B
server 192.168.101.1
peer 192.168.101.1
server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 14
So which will take priority over another for B? server or peer or they both work.
