HPE IRF traffic flow query

If I have a pair of distribution switches (D1 & D2) in an HPE IRF with a single LACP northbound (towards core), and multiple LACPs southbound (towards access), what sort of traffic flow would I expect over the IRF links?

Specifically, in the case of South->North traffic, a packet is received from the access layer on D1, and needs to travel northbound. Is the northbound LACP algorithm weighted to prefer to send traffic over D1's LACP link rather than sending to D2 via the IRF first?
