Bribe her.
Having a horse associate being caught with something that she wants isn't a bad thing. If I have a food responsive horse that is hard to catch, I use food before the catch, food after the catch, do what I want to do, then use food before the release, release, offer a food bribe to come back, and then I walk away.
If you want to spend 45 minutes a night walking a horse down, be my guest. Food bribe for a week and the horse should be walking up to you. If you food bribe, aka, treat, just after release eventually that is all you will probably need to do.
Eventually, if being around you isn't distasteful to the horse, you shouldn't need to do it.
Sound horse training theory? Hate it if you want. I know I can walk into a pasture and whistle for a horse I sold years before and they will still run up to me.
Horses that will not approach under any conditions, I will approach. Otherwise, they have four legs to my two. They can damn well walk up to me.
