Where to connect APs in a switch stack?

I have 3 switches in a stack. They are dual connected to the distribution switches, one connection to the top and one to the bottom of the stack. The layout of the physical location is currently unkown to me, but I will be able to choose where the APs are connected at time of installation. In total we'll have 10 APs connected to the stack, is there a industry standard for where to connect these with regards to redundancy of the wifi?

My thoughts are: Connect half at the top, half at the bottom, so only half the APs go down if one of the links or switches go down. Is that a correct assumption, or should I also connect some to the middle switch?
