Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant failed to preserve for appellate review his contention that the Supreme Court erred in failing to require the prosecution to provide a race-neutral explanation for a peremptory challenge to a black potential juror exercised during the first round of voir dire (see People v James, 99 NY2d 264 [2002]; People v Figueroa, 276 AD2d 561 [2000]; People v Caston, 239 AD2d 355 [1997]; People v Font, 223 AD2d 600 [1996]).

The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]).
