I'm stumped. I can't see anything wrong with the above and an almost
identical setup works for me.

(I have come across a couple of web pages that don't like the scripts
full stop, for example http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/tas3/bnf1.html, but that
is not the case here)

Suggested debug:

Make sure that you're using the latest git org-mode.

Open up org-remember.scpt and edit:

,----
| ...
| 
| display dialog theScript
| do shell script theScript
`----

Does theScript contain the expected content?

You could also try running from the terminal:

emacsclient org-protocol:/mac-remember:/y/foo/bar/test%20content:Safari

and seeing whether `test content' is inserted as initial content

Quite so. Done.
