Judgment unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum:

Defendant failed to move to withdraw his plea of guilty or vacate the judgment of conviction on the ground that his plea was not voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently entered and thus failed to preserve his present contention for our review ( see, People v. Harrell, 278 A.D.2d 852; People v. Tufino, 277 A.D.2d 986). In any event, we conclude that the plea was voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently entered ( see, People v. McDowell, 242 A.D.2d 860, lv denied 91 N.Y.2d 876, 1010). The further contention of defendant that he was deprived of effective assistance of counsel based on defense counsel's failure to review possible defenses for trial concerns matters outside the record and is therefore properly addressed in a CPL 440.10 motion ( see, People v. Snitzel, 270 A.D.2d 836, lv denied 95 N.Y.2d 804).
