Directional Valve With Function Counterbalace Valve ?

Good day sir.

I have the two stage directional valve (upper stage valve is float type. Lower stage valve is tandem type). I use this valve (consist of upper and lower stage) with fix displacement pump for liftting load without counterbalace valve (or brake valve). So Motor overruned and load go down fast. Can I insert some valves (I don't know excatly what kind of valve) between the upper stage and lower stage to have the directional valve with function counterbalace valve for prevent load from falling down fast. Thank for your help.
