Trail is kinda OK but it's not a burly UK hardtail, more of a kinda XC bike - correct me if I'm wrong but it's basically the same geo as the F29 series, which was a racing XC mile cruncher.
For that application 27.2 makes more sense - lyrca'd up XC whippets don't tend to use droppers or even hit the stuff that requires one.
