There are only 2 things that cause the trans to shift. 1 is the shift linkage and the other is the shift computer. Although there is a hydraulic valve body in the trans it gets its signal to shift from the shift computer acting on the two solenoid valves. This is unlike anything you car nut would be familiar with. The fact that it DOES shift into all gears is good news in that the mechanicals of the trans are probably in good shape. The only other thing you could check is the adjustment of the cable from the throttle spol to the shift computer. If it is WAY off it will affect the shift speeds. Don't worry it is probably the shift computer causing the delayed shifts.
