Double world marathon champion Kiplagat beat half-marathon world record
holder Florence Kiplagat by three seconds in the closest women's London
Marathon for 17 years in 2014.
Pushing them all the way this year will be 2013 champion Priscah Jeptoo and Mary Keitany, winner in 2011 and 2012.
The field contains 10 women who have sub-two hour, 25 minute times to their name.
"Winning my first London Marathon title on my fourth attempt last year was a special moment for me," said Edna Kiplagat, 35, who was third on her London debut in 2011 and has twice been runner-up.
"Now I have tasted success in London, I am determined to win again. But I know it will be tougher than ever in 2015.
"Florence will be hungry to win after getting so close last year, and both Priscah and Mary will be doing their best to regain the number one spot.
