Trinity College Dublin a target school for MBB?

I was just looking over a presentation by BCG on their CV screeing process and for the 'Priority' universities they have the usual suspects (Oxbridge, LSE, Imperial) but I was surprised to see Trinity College Dublin there as well. Is that really the case for MBB in London? This presentation was from 2017 so it can't be that outdated...

Disclaimer I don't go to TCD just curious because I thought the general consensus for target unis for MBB were just Oxbridge > LSE, Imperial.

Of course I can google but that doesn’t really answer my question… I know what universities MBB usually recruit. Let me rephrase the question then: why were the 5 unis singled out in the ‘Priority’ university list Oxford Cambridge LSE Imperial and TCD. I understand that the first 4 are heavily represented in MBB class but why is TCD also listed there. If they are a target why is the intake from there so low?
