Carbon fork query

Hi All

I'm keen to get a carbon fork with an alloy steerer and the following key specs:

Axle to crown - around 372mm
Blades - curved
Rake - approx 50mm

I've scowered the web, but the closest I can find is Bontrager Satellite Plus, which has an a-2-c distance of 385mm to accommodate long-reach caliper brakes. The Reynolds Ouzo Comp is close, but its rake is only 43mm.

Does anyone know of a carbon fork with alloy steerer that is closer to what I'm after?

Thanks, Tom

I should have mentioned that, just to make it extra difficult, the steerer needs to be at least 330mm in length.
