I have no experience with BGP, but here is a go:

/routing bgp peer {
    :local priPeerState [get [:pick [find name="Primary"] 0] state]
    :local secPeer [:pick [find name="Secondary"] 0]
    :local secPeerDisabled [get $secPeer disabled]
    :if ($priPeerState != "established") do={
        :if ($secPeerDisabled = true) do={
            enable $secPeer
        }
    } else={
        :if ($secPeerDisabled = false) do={
            disable $secPeer
        }
    }
}
