The Besson (with the side 4th valve) may well be a "compensating" euphonium - see other posts here or Dave Werden's site. I think you will find that a compensating horn will open up more possibilitites for intonation alternates and probably even some low note range for you. I really think you could get used to the left hand valve if you immerse yourself in practicing that way. It is actually a lot easier for me than trying to use my pinkie independantly from my ring finger.
