FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = (11/90)*n^6 + (11/5)*n^5 + (167/36)*n^4 - (43/6)*n^3 + (583/180)*n^2 - (61/30)*n + 1.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Sep 14 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(2 + 91*x + 137*x^2 - 148*x^3 - 4*x^4 + 9*x^5 + x^6) / (1 - x)^7.
a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 21*a(n-2) + 35*a(n-3) - 35*a(n-4) + 21*a(n-5) - 7*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n>7.
