Is a Mastiff Intelligence: easy to train?

Mastiffs are generally considered to have average working intelligence, ranking around 70th out of 138 breeds in Stanley Coren's "The Intelligence of Dogs." While they score a respectable 4/5 for memory and social intelligence, their obedience and problem-solving scores are 3/5. This suggests they are not the easiest dogs to train, often requiring more repetition and patience than higher-ranking breeds.
