Which tubeless winter tyres for my Zesty

I think I have it narrowed down to just a few...I ride the south and north downs through winter. Generally a few miles onroad to get to and from them. So..although wet slippery and chalky on the SD's, the bridleways at the foot are prone to getting "Horsed up" and pretty muddy at the foot. And that's sticky clay. eugh.
The north downs tend to be a much sandier mud - the type that screws your pads and chain in just a couple of rides...
Anyway...I want something UST that is quite fast rolling, shed mud well and won't leave me laying in a heap post wash out...
Not asking much am I? Here's my short list but please add others if very worthy options have been overlooked

I run a Kenda Blue Groove 2.35DTC on the front and an Advantage 2.25 on the rear of my Zesty, the Advantage isn't great in the mud though so I may end up swapping the rear to a Mud-X TR (which I used last winter with a High Roller on the front).0

Hey - thanks for the reply. I was erring towards the advantage....what's not good in the mud? Does it not clear? or no traction?
thanks0 -

Maybe because there isn't an option for 'other'. I wouldn't choose any of those mentioned so won't vote Highroller LUSTs for me.Adam.
Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

Yeah the Advantage doesn't clear too well IME - then again not many tyres do.0

If it's sticky clay then you only have two options, bonty mudx or trailrakers. Nice and skinny to maximise your mud clearance.0
