Does sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace be upon him) using the concise formula "Allahumma salli wa sallim 'ala Muhammad" (O Allah, send prayers and peace upon Muhammad) raise one ten degrees, or is this reward exclusive to the Abrahamic formula?

Prayers upon the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, are among the dhikr (remembrances of God) that carry immense reward. If a Muslim recites the formula: "O Allah, bestow Your prayers and peace upon Muhammad," he attains the reward for praying upon the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. This reward is not exclusively confined to the Ibrahimiyyah prayer.
