Commonwealth Games 5000m champion Beatrice Chebet will highlight the 3000m during Sunday's Silesia Diamond League meeting in Poland.
Chebet, who is also the world 5000m silver medallist, has been in superb shape this season, winning the 3000m event in Oslo in June in 8:25.01 and then emerging victorious in 5,000m in 14:36.52 under heavy rain in Stockholm early this month.
She also shone at the National Championships at Nyayo Stadium a fortnight ago, where she won the 1500m in 4:06:09.
Chebet, who is also the African 5,000, champion, will have Grace Loibach, Margaret Akidor, and Teresia Gateri for the company in the seven-lap race in Poland.
The Kenyan contingent face a stern test against world 5000m champion and Olympic bronze medallist Gudaf Tsegay alongside Hailu Freweyni, Hailu Lemlem, Kefale Yenawa, and Berhe Tegab—all from Ethiopia.
Competition is expected to come from Australia's Jessica Hull and USA's Henes Elly in what promises to be a competitive race.
Commonwealth Games 800m champion Mary Moraa will be the star attraction in the two-lap race.
Moraa has two victories under her belt this season after winning the 800m race in Rabat in 1:58.72 in May and Lausanne a fortnight ago in 1:57.43.
The world 800 bronze medallist broke the Kenyan national record in the 400m after clocking 50.38 on Saturday. She obliterated the previous mark which she set in Botswana in April, where she clocked 50.44.
She will be up against Uganda's Halima Nakaayi of Uganda, Benin's Nolie Yarigo and Natoya Toppin of Jamaica.
Abraham Kibiwott, Benjamin Kigen and Amos Kirui face an acid test in the men's 3000m steeplechase, where the country's dominance has faded in the past couple of years.
They face a herculean challenge in toppling Olympic and world champion Soufiane El Bakkali of Morocco. The Moroccan, who bagged the Diamond League crown last season, is the overwhelming favourite in the race.
Others to look out for include Wale Getnet and Amare Hailemariyam—both from Ethiopia.
Kenyan duo of Reynold Kipkorir and Abel Kipsang face a stern test in 1,500m against world and Olympic champion Jakob Ingebrigsten of Norway, Azzedine Habz of France, Giles Elliot of Great Britian and Stewart Mcsweyn of Australia in a to- quality field for the event.
