Highpoint description says:
You’ll really like thoughtful features such as the EQ6-R Pro dual saddle plate that will accept either Vixen- or Losmandy-style dovetails
I think you have a Vixen there, but since the EQ6 can take either, you should be fine unless it's been customized to something unusual.
