It's because the Spells are CountAsNeed(Magical), but Battle Wizard isn't ident(Magical).

This means that the spells are considered to be valid prereqs only for things that identify themselves as Magical, and since Battle Wizard is not so identified, those spells don't count.

Simplest solution: Click Battle Wizard, click Edit, click Full Edit Window, click Advanced, click Add Tag, enter ident as the Tag and Magical as the Tag Value. Click OK. Confirm ident() now appears in Tag list of Advanced Edit. Then OK all the way back out.

Battle Wizard should now identify as Magical and should now have all prereqs satisfied.
