Redtop translated to send overseas (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deport

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'send overseas' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'redtop translated' is the wordplay.
'translated' indicates anagramming the letters.
'redtop' with letters rearranged gives 'DEPORT'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for deport that I've seen before include "Expel to another country" , "Eject from country" , "Expel (a foreigner)" , "Expel as an undesirable alien" , "Remove an unwanted person from a country" .)
