Formula
Empirical: a(n) = (1/362880)*n^9 + (1/5760)*n^8 + (289/60480)*n^7 + (217/2880)*n^6 + (12949/17280)*n^5 + (28049/5760)*n^4 + (468401/22680)*n^3 + (210319/1440)*n^2 + (145955/504)*n + 77.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Apr 14 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(539 - 3877*x + 12586*x^2 - 23898*x^3 + 29072*x^4 - 23429*x^5 + 12502*x^6 - 4270*x^7 + 853*x^8 - 77*x^9) / (1 - x)^10.
a(n) = 10*a(n-1) - 45*a(n-2) + 120*a(n-3) - 210*a(n-4) + 252*a(n-5) - 210*a(n-6) + 120*a(n-7) - 45*a(n-8) + 10*a(n-9) - a(n-10) for n>10.
