What is the upgrade logic on multi-leg flights when first leg is full but not the second?

Sorry if this has already been asked (search is a bit finicky sometimes), I have an upgrade request in on QF1 from Y+ (WP).

On EF the loadings show J0 from SYD-LHR and SYD-SIN, but J9 on SIN-LHR. If there is no availability on the combined legs, but there is availability on one leg, does the system offer the upgrade for that second leg still - even if booked through the whole way (ie. Y+ on SYD-SIN and upgrade to J on SIN-LHR)?

If so, does the upgrade confirmation come through for that scenario at the same time pre-dep from SYD (24-48 hours for WP)? Or could we request at the lounge/gate in SIN for example?

Note - no upgrade at gate option because 2x pax.
