Open translation for this passage
Τίμωνι δὲ τῷ Αἰσύπου καθέντι ἐς Ὀλυμπίαν ἵππους ἀνδρὶ Ἠλείῳ ἐστι τοῦτο χαλκοῦν, ἐπʼ αὐτὸν ἀναβέβηκε παρθένος, ἐμοὶ δοκεῖν Νίκη.
The opening dative phrase identifies the dedicatee and the participle καθέντι with its object ἵππους; the clause then presents the bronze object and adds a maiden mounted upon it, identified as Nike. The exact attachment of the second predication and parenthetical δοκεῖν is somewhat paratactic.

Κάλλωνα δὲ τὸν Ἁρμοδίου καὶ τὸν Μοσχίωνος Ἱππόμαχον, γένος τε Ἠλείους καὶ πυγμῇ κρατήσαντας ἐν παισί, τὸν μὲν αὐτῶν ἐποίησε Δάιππος , Ἱππομάχου δὲ ὅστις μὲν τὸν ἀνδριάντα εἰργάσατο οὐκ ἴσμεν.
The initial accusative participial phrase is the object/topic of ἐποίησε: Δάιππος made one of the two statues, namely Κάλλων; Ἱππομάχου is a genitive of separation/topic with an omitted or loosely continued object, and ὅστις introduces an embedded interrogative-like relative clause. The coordination and elliptical syntax are somewhat uncertain.
