this week i’ve used all my reduced daily rests (9) but today i’m taking a break between 7am and 5pm am i right in thinking this will allow me to reduce tonites rest period as well in effect giving me 4 daily rests in one week

You can use 3 of those 10 hours (7am to 5pm) for a split daily rest if you have 9 of rest tonight BUT you must still be starting that 9 hour rest tonight no later than 15 hours from when you started today.
EXAMPLE: - If you started at 4am today then you must be starting tonights daily rest by 7pm.
If this is not possible then extend the 10 hour break by 1 hour so it makes an 11 hour daily rest - that way a new period of 24 hours can begin

Yes, that will be 3 reduced daily rest periods and one split daily rest period. You could have resumed work at 03:30 if you finished at 18:30.
