Fillip, stimulus (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boost

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fillip' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'stimulus' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for boost that I've seen before include "Increase or encourage(ment)" , "Promote" , "Help to increase" , "Raise" , "Push upwards, help" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
