Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying the defendant’s motion to withdraw his plea of guilty (see, CPL 220.60 [3]; People v Santana, 176 AD2d 360; People v Braun, 133 AD2d 702). Bracken, J. P., Copertino, Santucci, Florio and McGinity, JJ., concur.
