Good one. The odds look good to me, too.
I'm no forensic handwriting expert by a long shot, but comparing the two names, there is only one discrepancy that would make me pause, the additional hook after the first letter of the last name on the wood (red arrow). Elsewise, very similar, especially considering the awkwardness of writing on wobbly wood.
