Repeat a scarlet circle (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

redo

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

'a scarlet circle' is the wordplay.
'a scarlet' becomes 'red' (I've seen this before).
'circle' becomes 'O' (O is a circle).
'red'+'o'='REDO'

(Other definitions for redo that I've seen before include "Have second thoughts" , "Redecorate or repeat action" , "Create again" , "Carry out again" , "Decorate (eg a room) again" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
