Displaying trailing spaces in a filename; Korn Shell

Korn Shell on AIX 6.1

In one of our directories, we have 2 files with same names but one of those file's name has 3 trailing spaces
Code:
ls *.ctl

rconf.ctl
rconf.ctl     #this file has 3 trailing spaces

Is there any way we could display these trailing spaces ?
