After the recent snail racing contest, the four
contestants were congratulating each other. Only one snail wore
the same number as the position it finished in. Alfred's snail wasn't
painted yellow nor blue, and the snail who wore 3, which was painted
red, beat the snail who came in third. Arthur's snail beat Anne's
snail, whereas Alice's snail beat the snail who wore 1. The snail
painted green, Alice's, came second and the snail painted blue wore
number 4. Anne's snail wore number 1. Can you work out who's snail
finished where, its number and the colour it was painted?
