الوصف: We report a magnetoresistance study of the superconducting ferromagnet UCoGe. The data, taken on single-crystalline samples, show a pronounced structure at $B^* = 8.5$~T for a field applied along the ordered moment $m_0$. Angle dependent measurements reveal this field-induced phenomenon has an uniaxial anisotropy. Magnetoresistance measurements under pressure show a rapid increase of $B^*$ to 12.8~T at 1.0~GPa. We discuss $B^*$ in terms of a field induced polarization change. Upper critical field measurements corroborate the unusual S-shaped $B_{c2}(T)$-curve for a field along the $b$-axis of the orthorhombic unit cell.
