I think the Brits would had made sure that they would get control of the Pacific as well if they defeated the American Revolutionaries purchasing Philippines and Louisiana from Spain and France and colonizing Australia would have been a priority.

I believe the main reason why the Philippines was not retained by the British after the 7 years war is that their position in America was not secure at the French-Indian war..because of the American discontent in the British rule in the 13 colonies, I believe if Britain can implement reforms to the 13 colonies then they can keep the Philippines instead of giving it back to Spain..they can demand Louisiana from France a well..
