〜おかげで
おかげで credits the friend's help for the welcome result — the work finished early thanks to them.
Tested at JLPT N3 — 3 practice questions below.
Practice 〜おかげで →〜おかげで attributes a favorable outcome to its cause ('thanks to'). Daily practice is the praiseworthy cause of winning, so the grateful tone of おかげで fits. せいで has the same cause-result structure but only for bad outcomes and blame, which clashes with the happy result 勝てた; ためなら is a conditional of purpose and ところで is not causal.
