It's just basic chromatic scales, I guess.
Eg, the start goes
1313132121313132 etc

A very good excercise is to use 1-4-5 instead of 1-2-3 (in the right hand). It really strengthens that side of the hand, and increases 4-5 finger independance. I do the same in my left hand too, by practicing chromatic scales using fingers 3, 4, and 5.

On the version that I have, it listed the fingering and I played it first measure - 5,4,3,2,4,3,2,1.. then the second measure is 4,3,2,1,4,3,2,1... and you repeat.

Of course it isn't strictly a piano piece anywho, the Rach transcription uses the fingering I said (or that might be a different one)
The Cziffra one is just insane. <3
The 345 is a really useful fingering - for example playing the first bit as 434343 5454 343435 etc.
