I would change

<xsl:template name="table-image-right">

to

<xsl:template name="table-image-right" match="Record[recordId mod 2 = 1]">

and

<xsl:template name="table-image-left">

to

<xsl:template name="table-image-left" match="Record[recordId mod 2 = 0]".

and then the <xsl:for-each select="record"> instruction above can be simply
replaced by

<xsl:apply-templates select="Record"/>
