Andrew,

Is your Loree one of the 125 year ones? If so, it'll have a 'Philadelphia' high D facilitator. And you might try the following for high D given that you're a conservatoire player -

LH

+low C

Of course, there are many ways to skin this cat - just go with the fingering that's stable and sounds effortless - there's no 'right' answer. In fast passages in the Mozart you can even see Heinz Holliger playing top D with the trill key - and I'm sure nobody in the audience is any the wiser, as long as it's clean sounding!
