As the replicate triggered ability resolves, you'll copy Lose Focus for each time you paid its replicate cost, even if the original spell is no longer on the stack at that time (perhaps because it was countered).

The copies that replicate creates are created on the stack, so they're not “cast.” Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell won't trigger.
