I've been getting on with the Vittorias (on a tubular casing) okay in the muddier races thus far this year. Those paddles mean they're great in a straight line but could perhaps be a little better going around stuff. They'll probably only last this season though as the knobs aren't all that deep.
Specialized Terra perhaps? I used them last season and they were great other than being a little narrow for my tastes and a bit fragile (I punctured them twice in about 4 races before ripping a sidewall on the last lap of the last race of last season). I'd guess the tubeless variant will be a bit bulkier so they might avoid that. I'm using Specialized tubeless tyres on my mountain bike at the moment and they feel pretty tough.

I'm sure I've asked this before, but any recommendation for a proper mud tyre compatible with tubeless rims.
Maxxis Mud Wrestler might be worth a punt, maybe the Challenge Grifo clincher - we have some running with tubes and they look very aggressive. maybe mount the front in reverse for extra. Haven't tried them tubeless though so do a bit of research first if you like the look of them.

I'm running Michelin Mud 2s which are fine in intermediate conditions, but now it's properly wet I want something with a more aggressive tread. I've got a pair of Bontrager CX3 but hell will freeze over before they go on my Iron Cross rims. I've just received a pair of Vittoria XM but the tread is not as aggressive as I wanted. Anything else? I'm tempted by the Specialized Tracer 2Bliss but am concerned they won't go on my rims.
