What you do is move yourself up against the wall so that you are in a direct line of sight with the front roaming statue and the back roaming statue. In other words, you're right in front of the archway, looking all the way into the back of the gate area. But you're back by the shop stands as far back as you can get so you don't aggro the front roaming statue while he gets to his farthest point. You then pull the front roaming statue, no matter where he is, when the BACK roaming statue is about 1 second away from turning around to go the other direction.
The hardest one to pull is the middle statue because the back roaming middle statue doesn't have as far to travel as the other two. But the same principle should work, pull when the one in the back is just about to turn around.
