Forcing HashAggregation prior to index scan? - Mailing list pgsql-performance

I have a very simple problem. I run two select statments, they are identical except for a single
where condition. The first select statment runs in 9 ms, while the second statment runs for 4000
ms

SQL1 - fast 9ms
explain analyse select seq_ac from refseq_sequence S where seq_ac in (select seq_ac2 from
refseq_refseq_hits where seq_ac1 = 'NP_001217')

SQL2 - very slow  4000ms
explain analyse select seq_ac from refseq_sequence S where seq_ac in (select seq_ac2 from
refseq_refseq_hits where seq_ac1 = 'NP_001217') AND S.species = 'Homo sapiens'

I think the second sql statment is slower than the first one because planner is not using
HashAggregate. Can I force HashAggregation before index scan?
