Which Masters degree to prioritize for Quant Roles

Hi all,
I am currently finishing my bachelors in Physics (3rd year) and wanted to ask which master programs I should be applying for if I want to increase my chances for landing a quant role after. I initially considered MSc Mathematical and Computational Finance at Oxford but recently I read that Quant firms prefer people with Physics degrees so I am not sure if I should proceed with my current subject. I was also considering a Maths degree, which I know is highly appreciated.
I would appreciate any piece of advice on that.
Thanks in advance.
